Course Curriculum Overview :

The curriculum used a blend of theory and practical approaches to learning. In my course, most of the weightage was on practical assignments. We were taught using books, articles, papers, documentaries, youtube lessons. We were shown movies and shows to better understand a concept.

Internships Opportunities :

Students seek on-campus internships for which they have to work with the placement cell. Apart from that, a lot of students also seek internships from other places, either online or off-campus. The stipend is usually between 2k-8k.

Placement Experience :

Placements aren't super lucrative mainly because you won't land a great job just by completing your undergrad. However, the placement cell is very responsive and tries their best to aid students who are interested in placements.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

My course was slightly expensive compared to other undergrad courses because of two reasons- one being we had the best classrooms in the building and secondly, we had practicals in studios that used very expensive equipment and softwares. Scholarships and financial aid are provided to deserving students.

Campus Life :

The campus is a very happening place and the annual fest, Xavotsav is the biggest and the most anticipated college fest in Kolkata. The college has a lot of different societies and there's a place for everyone there. The societies keep hosting events and fests which are attended by esteemed people and celebrities.

Admission :

To get admitted to Mass communication, you have to appear for a one-hour long examination which tests your creativity, your proficiency in English and your general knowledge. Some seats are reserved for SC/ST students but they still have to perform well in the entrance exam. Christians and students who have studied from the St. Xavier's School also get favourability.

Faculty :

The faculty is very experienced in their areas of teaching and most of them have doctorates from prestigious universities. They have a hands-on approach to teaching and their classes are very engaging and interactive. They are very open, approachable and friendly to students and are always there to clarify any doubts.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Curriculum is essential to guide teachers in what to teach, how much depth of knowledge is needed for that grade, and a a timeline to follow so the year will be completed. Our teachers are well known about the syllabus of 3 yrs but some time we get very less time to cover the syllabus in a certain semester.So that need to improve

Placement Experience:

The placements provided by adamas university are really good, it basically depends on the student and his own knowledge and skills, but still the placements of adamas are really good. For biochemistry, placements are good only after masters. After Bsc there are jobs but they won't pay that much which you can get after completing Msc. And there are very few jobs of biochemistry in India. But you'll have a great scope in abroad.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The Course curriculum & faculty members are quite good, 1st of all I have preferred Bsc Biotech because of my extreme interest in genetic engineering & upcoming situations of Covid 19. Also, this subject has a possibility for a Blooming future in the upcoming days of the Pandemic/epidemic. The Faculty in This college is quite good & The laboratory benefits & materials are also Supportive & workable, This college provides one of the oldest Biotech labs in West Bengal. The student ratio is also balanced. Saying about Qualification of the faculty, The Professors have atleast 6-10 yrs of teaching exp and research performs in their career, they are all friendly & supportive and helps us to explore more in this subject The term exams are Moderate & have standard questions.

Remarks:

This college still today stands to be among the first choice of every student in the hooghly district and 2nd in the Burdwan University. The only negative part is that this college has a very high political presence in the campus. Though the present government said that they oppose such strong political holds in colleges but still this words has not been kept.
