Presidency University Kolkata Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

I choose this course because my father wanted to. I am a commerce student and i have no interest in bengali.. But after coming to this university I found a little interest in this subject we have a teacher name debarati jana she is just excellent in teaching.. Also all the faculties are very good and supportive

I chose the course because I loved literature from childhood, and I enjoyed the subject throughout my academic years. The Department of English at Presidency University is small, there are 11 profs (5 male and 6 female), and most of them are highly educated and hold P.hd degrees. Most of them are active members of different academic boards. 2 of the profs (Sumit Chakraborty and Shanta Dutta) are "Professor", and one (Purna Banerjee) is an "Associate Professor" and they have assisted many scholars in their P.hd courses as a guide. The faculty is very liberal and for UG-1/2 there are special tutorial classes that are held by them to provide them extra academic care and help. The teachers are mostly nice and they help academically, mentally and even financially. The internal and end semesters are very timely and they run according to the official academic calendar. The classes are regular and discipline is highly regulated. The question level is medium and one can easily pass if the student attends classes.

I choose this of BA in Sociology course as this course curriculum is pretty good for civil services exams and I am quite passionate about the subject. The faculty students ratio is 1:5 approximately. The faculties are very much qualified with most teachers having a minimum PhD and a good teaching experience in the subject. There are semester exams every 6 months and also mid term tests which are conducted every 3 months.

The course curriculum is good and the reading materials provided by faculty are quite good. Faculty are experienced especially for English, Political Science, Economics and Geography depts. The Faculty qualifications are good keeping in mind it is one of India's oldest and most prestigious institutions. Term exams and assignments were timely taken and accredited for. Teaching review 7.5/10

I always wanted to study political science. Contrary to what people generally think, political science is not only good for UPSC or other government administrative jobs but is also required for developing skills for both the for-profit sector and the non-profit one. There were 11 professors, very well equipped from well-known institutions like SOAS, Oxford, Jadavpur University, JNU etc.

I choose this course because I was a arts student it in class 12. I like the English subject very much and I got a good number in English in 12th class. You must have above 80% in 12th exam to qualify in the admission process. The teachers of the college are very good person they help us a lot in study. Exams were divided in semesters. Per year there are 2 semistars. The exam were easy for who studied and hard for who didn't.

I choose Hindi Hons as I always love this subject and I'm always eager to know more about literature. Around 30, It's quite good. The teachers and the faculty members are very supportive and friendly. Every 6 months we held our semester examination.

The placement cell is currently inactive. Departments like Statistics, Economics have some placement programs after graduation and post-graduation, though less in number. Being a student of humanities, we do not get to know about the companies visit for campusing and number of offers the make. Hardly 10-15% of students get placements.
