Placements are little bit disappointed

Infrastructure can be said as fairly good. This is because the the campus provides for healthy and sanitised surroundings and clean and safe drinking water. Classes are very neat and clean. Hence the infrastructure is good.

Academics is also fairly good as can be mone presidency served to be one of the top universities of its time. However, it's still as good in terms of producing students of high quality and calibre. Professors are very helping.

Presidency University is also known because of its good attachments with companies and other colleges. Hence, it provides for good placement facilities as well. This make it a good college in an all round sense.

We have great campus with all related facilities like library, computer lab, smart classes, playground , canteen and huge auditorium for any events and functions. we have lab facilities and also Bank Atm service near the college campus.

Faculty are so supportive in guiding us and always helps us in any problems and give kind advise for us to develop ourselves more over we the principal is the main reason behind all the good faculties.

college is tied up with so many companies like biocon, chipla, etc. and in college, they conduct various topics as value added course and helps the students to get into internship. Salary Package: 4 - 6 Lakhs

College has more or less all the facilities but requires proper servicing and updating. Wifi doesn't work all the time. Living space and food are average. More washrooms for girls should be installed.

I'm studying geography because I have always liked this subject. The curriculum is alright but i don't think it includes all the recent developments in the field. I'm not sure about whether the subject I'm studying makes one job ready because I want to stay in academic line.

I'm not sure about the college placements as I am still pursuing my bachelor's degree. But i don't think that my subject provides any placement. A student pursuing masters degree will be able to answer better.

My course cost Rs .2500 per year. I study in a government institution. So given that fact I'm getting my money's worth. But I would do prefer some more changes and modifications. Otherwise it is alright.

Too much involvement in politics and people involved in politics use their power to exploit fellow students. Professors and support staff are not necessarily the most helpful. Location is alright for me as I use the metro for my daily travel. I would rate 1 star.

My university has all the necessary infrastructure needed for the different deparments. The science departments get all the proper labs and equipment. There are large lecture rooms for joint courses like AECC,etc. The university has two large libraries. One for science and one for arts. There are two canteens as well. The whole campus is cleaned daily and all the labs and euipment are well mentained. Students also get access to wifi and medical assistance if needed.

I am studying B.A. Sociology honours. The sociology department of our university is one of the best in West Bengal. All our professors are highly qualified and are very helpful. Our department follows the curriculum that is set by the UGC and is updated as per their instructions. The sociology undergraduate course deals a lot with the theoretical part of the subject along with the practical parts. The subject will make us job ready depending on the kind of job that we choose.

I am not sure of placements that happen from our university. I have heard that the placement system in our university is not very good, but I am not sure about that. So I cannot comment much on what actually happens with placements in our uuniversity

The sociology course costs about ₹1100 per semester. So I think that its completely value for money, considering the quality of teaching that our university provides.

Campus life is pretty nice in our university. The students are friendly, students can play music, sing songs and play different sports in the campus. We get a Table Tennis and carrom room, a big playing field, a large courtyard where students can hang out when classes are over. The campus is completely safe and the gates are looked after by groups of securtiy guards.

The University infrastructure is definitely very well maintained. The new buildings Baker, Derozio and Netaji Subhash are fully modern. ACs have been provided to a few départements. Chemistry department being one of them. The old Presidency Building is also well maintained although the lack of AC gives rise to a few complaints especially during the summers. Smart boards are provided to every department. Food in the canteen is made following strictest hygiene. Lack of hostel rooms is an issue.

I am currently studying Chemistry hons. due to my love for the subject and Presidency's long standing history of providing gifted chemists. Our university boasts of having the oldest chemistry department in the country. Although the quality of teaching has fallen a bit over the years but the standards are still way higher than many a college's. Our HOD believes in practical knowledge before theoretical so we get enough lab time. Making us well equipped for the future.

The Placement Cell has been defunct for a while now. Although Presidency University has a great repute among colleges, it isn't enough to attract big companies. Most students look to pursue master's in IITs.

Being a Government college. Value for money is the biggest plus of Presidency University. Even the students coming from the poorest of families can pay the fees very comfortably. Such quality of education at this low cost is what other Universities should also strive for.

The beauty of college campus is known to whole city. As evening comes, music and songs fill the air of Presidency. Table Tennis, Badminton, Carrom, all kinds of sports keep the students busy. Although most students are very helpful, some stick out like a sour thumb. The location just by the medical college makes it a very safe place to be. It's located at the world's largest second hand book market so books are always found nearby.

I am in my first year in this college, and I have seen the most major event of Presi that is the Student Union Elections. My stay at Presi has been very pleasant. This University has helped me find my love for Table Tennis. Taught me to compassionate and taught me that the educated need to think more about world politics. The Three Ps of Presidency are Prem, Porasuna, Politics(Love, studies, politics) and till now I have been able to do all simultaneously :)
