What Students Say

Likes

There's a Central library where there's a huge stock of books and journals
The faculty were very good and was friendly towards the students.

Dislikes

Lack of maintenance of media laboratory.
Lack of practical in hand workshops for cinematography.

Course Curriculum Overview

I have chosen the course because it was my passion to serve for democracy being the fourth pillar of it. There were 4 faculty members in total and 40 students. The faculty members came from different universities. Our HOD Dr Mausumi Bhattacharya has completed her Post Doctoral fellowship from ICSSR. The exams were held twice a year based on the semester system. They were quite moderate.

Class Size: 40Course Fees: INR 50000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The cost was around 50k. As it is a Central University the cost was less for carrying out this course. They provided financial assistance to the EWS,SC,ST, and OBC students and provided scholarships to students based on their merits.

Campus Life

Life on campus was nice. The campus was surrounded by green trees and it was spread along 300 acres of land there were anti-ragging cells. There's a Central library from which the students can access books where there's a large stock of journals and books.

Admission

Bachelors from arts background, Firstly we have to apply for their admission test. The admission test was completely based upon the Journalism and mass communication syllabus. After that based on the admission test, the merit list was published. After that, they called for PI and carried out the selection process based on that.

Visva- Bharati a unique blend of culture and education

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is student-friendly. The students have access to the Mac Lab and Media Lab, there is also a departmental library. Though the infrastructure is not great, the faculty members still try their best to help the students in any way possible, by arranging many workshops and seminars. The focus is generally on developing academic and research aptitudes in students alongside helping them develop technical skills with limited facilities.

A Peaceful, Culturally Rich Journey at Visva-Bharati University

I chose VBU over other colleges because of its peaceful campus, strong language programmes and unique academic environment inspired by Rabindranath tagore's vision. I had also applied to JNU and EFLU, but after careful comparison I found VBU more aligned with my learning style and personal goals. The UNIVERSITY offers a more focused and supportive setting with smaller class sizes and close student-teacher interaction which is ideal for studying a language like Japanese. The admission process was conducted through the CUET( COMMON UNIVERSITY ENTRANCE TEST) . The eligibilty was 10+2 with a valid CUET score. For Japanese VBU considers marks of either ENGLISH or GENERAL TEST whichever you get higher marks in. I dont regret choosing VBU it was the right decision for my academic and personal development....Read More
