St Joseph's College, Darjeeling Reviews on Infrastructure, Campus, Placement, Facilities & Faculty

The college infrastructure is really good and well maintained.It has a good scenery since its situated in Darjeeling.The college had all the facilities required for a BA student so the overall infrastructure was good.

Talking about Academics teachers were supportive and knowledgeable I had a good learning experience .Library had all the resourcea required for my study as well as teachers helped me develop a great intrest towards English Literature.

Usually placements are provided for professional courses only and since my course was BA it wasn't focused on placements but rather towards higher education and because of which I developed a keen interest towards English.

Value of money was provided well since the teachers put a lot of effort and support towards us.The education I got here was worth all the money I paid so since I met many great Lectures and Professors who were very insightful and resourceful.

Overall the campus life was good since we had many activites like fest and other inter college and inter class competition apart from regular studies but then scarcity of water is a big problem or else campus life was good with all those beautiful surroundings in Darjeeling.

Yes the college have all the necessary equipment and we have the facilities of library and our college is not only active in academics but its also much active in other extra curriculum like clubs , visit to new places , and field work and yes the living spaces are clean and the food are hygienic.

I am currently pursuing in Political science subject as my honour subject and the quality if teachers and the teaching methods are so good and easy to understand. And they help us in each and every things and it feels so good about this college and especially my department.

I have no idea of placement right now but i think it has a good chance for placement and to learn about new things and we have our fellowship program and career counseling. And yes college also held some internship program which help us to get good jobs after college.

Like our college is very affordable like every rich and poor can study and its worth every penny.

Like my campus life is so good everyone and everything is so good and i had made friends who are so loving and caring and our campus is filled with fun , exciting things

I like my college and everything is so well managed and the environment is so refreshing and pure

Campus infrastructure is quite average and leaves a lot to be desired. Classrooms are spacious and are equipped with basic green boards but the wooden benches are quite uncomfortable for lectures. No wifi facilities except in library but the wifi there is still very slow.

Academic structure at the college follows university syllabus closely but the execution falls flat due to a major shortage of teaching staff. On paper, the curriculum covers all the essential concepts and updates . However in reality,there are far too few lecturers. Many permanent faculty positions remain vacant, forcing the college to rely heavily on guest lecturers who frequently change .

Graduating with BSc in Physics from SJC is an enriching experience academically but the campus placement system in core science streams is quite limited. The college's placement system is largely skewed towards professional courses like BCA,BCom and BBA.

It has a very good infrastructure and is at the perfect location. The weather conditions are also good. The college is vast and also has hostels. It has wll maintained classrooms and labs with 24*7 wifi. There is no need for AC as the college is at a hilly region.

The teaching faculty is good, qualified, and experienced. They guide the students well. But there's only one problem which is language barrier. Sometimes the hostel students feel left out because the teachers interrupt their lectures by using local languages sometimes.

The quality of teaching is good. But the placements are not good. Only local companies come to hire. The students have to get their placements by their own. This is the biggest disadvantage of the college.

The course costs me around 15,650 rupees and the money is worth it because here we get qualitative learning.

The campus is very huge and has a lot of events conducted every year. The students are also trained for NCC parades.
