Best college in West Bengal for music courses.
Placements: In our course, there are no such direct placements available. Our course is not for normal job processes. My aim is not to sit in placements but to study up to Ph.D. courses. But in B.Sc. courses, our college arranges basic internship facilities for students. In other courses, you can get a package up to Rs. 4 LPA. However, that will depend on your skills.
Infrastructure: The college has great infrastructure in terms of musical instruments and classrooms. There are various clubs in our college to join for extracurricular activities. Our college hostel is good, but I personally prefer to stay in outside PGs or mess. In cultural activities, our college is great, and I would rate it as 5 stars.
Faculty: The professors in our college are great, and they are very helpful, friendly, and interactive. They are especially helpful; my music teacher is very expert in teaching. The course curriculum is relevant, but some modifications may happen. Exams in our department are not too hard. It is easy to clear, and I am happy with the college.
Other: I have a passion to music.
