M.A. in Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology - Batch of 2026

Offered by St. Xavier's College, Mumbai

3.4

St. Xavier's College Mumbai.

Placements: There is no campus placement in my course as it is academically focused. However, other courses like BDA, XIC, and Management have placement opportunities. According to students from these courses, placements are great. Our professors provide various internship opportunities to enhance our knowledge.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is well-designed and includes ramps and lifts for specially-abled people. It sometimes gets congested during break time. The hostel is available only for boys in odd years and not for girls. The area around the college is slightly expensive, with PG prices starting from Rs.14,000 for double sharing.

Faculty: Exams are conducted in three levels with CIA 1 and 2 for 20 marks each and the end-semester exam for 60 marks. Studies are taken seriously and 75% attendance is mandatory. Students also go on trips to various sites like Dholavira, Elephanta Caves, and Kanheri Caves as per subject requirements. The passing percentage for exams is 40%.

I like their facility behaviour they were very friendly.

Placements: Infosys is hiring CS and IT field students who get good opportunities and have their own name in the IT field. During internships, they get around 15,000 to 20,000 stipend while interning. If I talk about project and their outcomes, from 5-6 semester students to 7-8 semester students are able to attend the campus placement. Infosys, Acme, Mahindra, Gallent, etc. companies come for placement. The average package should be 2 LPA to 3 LPA.

Infrastructure: Having a site annual function with the name of the college in which we used to select interested students to perform in front of our seniors and faculty members for enjoyment, we held this program. Almost every game is included for sports days, excluding a few of them that need to be added on.

Faculty: Student and faculty bonding was very much friendly; all the faculty members were good. Ratnesh sir, who is HEAD OF THE DEPARTMENT in CS, is a very helpful-natured person. Even if I don’t belong to their own department, they are always ready to help me whenever I need. I don’t think like that. I don’t like anyone. Each and every one is good. In a year, there are 2-semester exams and 3 sessional exams in between each semester.

Absolutely satisfied with all things.

Placements: The placement rate is high. Students start getting placed in the second year; 20% are placed in the first month of the second year. Godrej, L&T, and Impact Guru are just a few of the companies that come for on-campus drives. The highest package given was 22 LPA. Internships are coming in bulk; personally, I got four internships at Brezzy Media, Impact Guru, etc. We hire students as interns.

Infrastructure: As we all know, Mithibai is known for its social life. The college committed to Kshitij conducts cultural events that are famous in Mumbai. The library has AC and all books. Classrooms have AC, smart boards, projectors, microphones, etc. They do not offer hostels, but a charitable trust in Mumbai offers hostel facilities. They have good rooms and tasty meals. One thing that disappoints me is that the college campus is extremely small and feels congested.

Faculty: Teachers are good, but the vice principal is very strict; she does not entertain anything easily. 75% attendance is a must; if not, they put students on default. The course curriculum is copied by Mumbai University, which itself has an old curriculum. It makes students industry-ready, but the curriculum needs to change. Semester exams are not very difficult in class; more than 80% of students passed.

Other: We do not have a big sports field and campus. Not having enough holidays is one of the problems.

Like any other Institution/University maintaining an attendance of 75% is mandatory for the students at Mumbai University. The University has its own Attendance Committee, for the smooth conduct of this ordinance in every Department. As per the Attendance Ordinance, candidates must maintain at least 75% attendance for each course & average attendance. If the students fail to maintain the number, the department/college doesn’t forward the examination form to the University exam unit. However, a minimum attendance of 50% is considered in special cases like health issues, family losses, etc.
