Course Curriculum Overview

4

I studied BSc. Honours in Human Development from JD Birla. The subject itself is very integrated and multidisciplinary. It covers a plethora of topics including counselling, sociology, early childhood care and education, prenatal development and care, gerontology, extension education, psychology, and much more. A person can go ahead with research work, pursue masters's or any other higher studies, etc. The faculty taught us with utmost care and with proper practical approach.

Internships Opportunities

4

JD Birla institute offers various internship opportunities to students. Department-wise all the internships are mandatory. So for eg: For nutrition department there are companies like ITC, Emami, for Textile department there are textile related companies, same for interior designing. for the department of Human Development they had organisations like NGOs, counselling centres, clinics, preschools.

Placement Experience

3

From 5th Semester, the students become eligible for placements. There are a lot of companies hiring students from our college including Delloite, CRY, Small Wonders. Students who were genuinely interested to work after studies went ahead with placements. However, most of the students go ahead with higher studies.

Fees and Financial Aid

JD. Birla is a renowned college in Kolkata, West Bengal. It offers a variety of courses. The course I studied was BSc Honours in Human Development. It was divided in 6 semesters. The joining fees was somewhere around 98 thousand. Every semester we had to pay around 65 thousand(inr). The fees was similar for all my batchmates from any category. Scholarship is mostly merit-based.

Campus Life

4

My overall experience with campus life in JD Birla was nothing short of experiencing new things. There were annual functions, inter-college competitions, department fests. JDBI has an amazing learning resource centre with its membership with British library. The classrooms are digitalised.

Admission

JD Birla is located in my hometown,Kolkata. Plus it is affiliated to the Jadavpur university, and the subject was something very interesting and fresh. JD Birla was the only college providing us with a BSc. honours in human development. The admission criteria for my college was on the basis of merit.

Faculty

5

The faculty members for my subject were par excellence. Their knowledge, experience and guidance helped us gain strong basis of knowledge and expertise. There were two sets of exams for every semester including an internal test and final end semester examinations.

Night Life

4

JDBI is located in the heart of the city and has the busiest road. There are several cafes, malls, and places to hang out. We have our most popular park street where Oxford Book Store, all the most renowned restaurants, bars, cafes, bakeries including Flury's are all located there. So all in all this males Park Street a much better place.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I've always found economics to be really interesting and thats why I choose to persue it. I wanted to dive deep into the actual concepts and workings of the economy and understand how the world works from an economist's point of view. Sadly the curriculam doesnt bridge the gap between theory and real life. It focuses heavily on textbook and not how the world works.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would say the course is good but you have to opt for masters and PhD to get a good placement. After bsc there's not any placement. The curriculum was basically practical and theoretical based. But I think it should be more practical so that we can get a job after doing bsc. The teaching method was good I didn't have any problem with that. As it was under Calcutta University so the exam questions were too difficult, sometimes it came out of our syllabus , i think they should change this a little bit .

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus for BSc. Microbiology Hons. was in line with my interests. Few topics like virology, bacteriology, and diversity of the microbial workd are what drew my attention to pick this course. Although there are some portions which one would consider "boring", but I believe every subject has its interesting as well as boring portions. It's seems fair to judge a subject by seeing if the "boring" portions outweigh the "interesting" parts or not.

Course Curriculum Overview:

In terms of relevance and comprehensiveness of the course curriculum, my rating is solid 4.1 out of 5. Because it offers a variety of courses like compulsory english, environmental science, constitution values of India, Inter Disciplinary Courses where one can opt for a variety of subjects which change along with the course proceeds or semester changes. Not only that two major papers and one minor paper are present throughout the semester. As a student we should be well aware of our country and its law as well as how we can keep our environment healthy followed by sustainable development.
