What Students Say
Likes
- Faculty: The faculty is knowledgeable, with an appreciable teaching style that makes concepts easy to grasp.
- Teaching and Study Material are valuable and worth it.
- The college offers a range of extracurricular activities, which is a plus. There are organisations like LTS and NSS linked with this college
Dislikes
- Placement opportunities are too limited atleast for sociology course.
- The administrative office could be more cooperative and supportive responding promptly to student's queries and concern.
- While the infrastructure and availability of the books in the library are fine but more than half of the books are library copy
Course Curriculum Overview
The course curriculum is well structured and comprehensive, but the syllabus is somewhat in descending order, making it challenge for first year students to grasp. Another concern is the exam schedule. There should be a proper 6 month gap between each semester exam
Placement Experience
Overall the placement cell is great especially for the B.com and BBA students. But the placement for sociology department is limited. Most of the students in our batch are planning to do masters or mba.
Fees and Financial Aid
fees of each semester are around rupees 18500, with the last semester being slightly higher at rupees 20000. For the entire three-year program( 6 semesters), the total fee comes out to be approximately rupees 1,20,000.
Campus Life
First thing there is no involvement of any political parties, thus no external influence. It is a plus point. Campus life at my college has been overall good, with the higligh being the wonderful frinedships i have formed. The college offers various clubs which caters to different interests, which is a great way to explore new passions and talents.
Admission
I applied to several colleges, including ashutosh, Jadavpur university, Presidency, Maulana Azad, and Gokhale Memorials Girl's college. After receiving selection offers from Ashutosh, Gokhale, Maulana Azad and Shikshayatan, I weighed my options. Maulana Azad was rules out due to its distance from my home. Gokhale was eliminated as it did not offer sociology. Ultimately I chose Shri Shikshayatan over Ashutosh
Faculty
As a student at this college I have a mixed experience. On the positive side the faculty is knowledgeable. The notes provided are helpful. Regular attendance can make additional tution unnecessary. The faculty student relationship is generally positive. The CBCS system with six semesters can be challenging, and the average scoring in our college is not as high compared to other colleges under Calcutta University.
Night Life
As a day scholar I commuted to college from home daily, which means I didn't expect hostel life or the nightlife that often comes with it. After college, my friends and I would often grab a bit at nearby restaurants or cafes. Given the local demographics, most of these eateries were vegetarian friendly.The area around the college is notably safe with both army and police establishments with a 5 minutes distance.
Other Applied Colleges
Gokhale Memorial Girls' College | Bachelor of Arts [BA] {Hons.} (Political Science)
Political science was my second choice and they did not have sociology as a course.
