Dislikes

People from small towns might feel a little problem to catch up
The number of Washrooms I believe should be increased

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course in Presidency is just a dream come true for every student who want to be into Academics. The only reason to choose this college was its curriculum and highly prestigious faculty and ambience of the 207 years old heritage building. I am fortunate that my college provides me with courses of Jewish History and Many other exciting themes to study and work with. There are regular CAs and IAs are conducted to check our performances and our professors train us to write good research articles and think innovatively through IAs by conducting it in a form of writing a research paper. Our college also conducts UG dissertation where we learn to write and think new research ideas and work with primary and secondary sources supervised by our professors.

3.0Helpful

Likes

Good and understanding faculty members very friendly and helpful
Availability of important books in the library required in the course

Dislikes

Excessive internal politics inside the department
Professor preferring some specific students in the department

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is good and covers most of the topics of the course. Our faculty is very good they teach us very well and are well trained...also understand students problems..our faculties are well educated some are from Oxford University. One thing I want to bring into notice is that one semester is mainly of 6 months but every semester we hardly got only 4 months and exams are tough if you don't study and it's easy if you study.

ABOUT THE PRESIDENCY UNIVERSITY

3.8Helpful

Likes

The environment of the college is good and healthy
The best thing is about its campus infrastructure

Dislikes

The problem is that it doesn't provide internships opportunities
Also the students have to keep 75% attendence or else they won't be allowed to sit in the exam

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course which I chose is very intersting and helpful. This course helps in transforming our idea of thinking from an ordinary thinker to a critical and analytical one. The faculty members are very helpful and supportive. The total strength of the class is 22-30. The students can opt for this course if they have scored 80% in their higher secondary. The exams are conducted regularly in every months. Sometimes the exam becomes hard to pass but the faculty members encourages the student regularly and stays connected with them whenever any student needs.

Firstly the people here are imbued with postmodern mindset
The environment is enriching and provides one with so much experience

Dislikes

Unfriendly university administration, and negligence for the students
University ignored more than one hundred students' food and shelter scarcity

Course Curriculum Overview:

This course will provide overall knowledge of the power dynamics and embedded institutions in the socio-political sphere, faculty and student ratio is okay but there is a little deficiency in the number of faculties in most of the departments, however the faculty here are among the bests not only India but on a global scale, term exams are designed efficiently but they are a little difficult to pass, one needs to study really seriously to get marks
