    College Infrastructure

    From the infrastructural point of view, our college has great qualities. We have digital classrooms equipped with all sort of facilities, well equipped lab, and an enriched library. From the hygiene perspective I will not say that it is great and it needs improvement.

    Academics

    I am pursuing my MSc in geography and the quality of teaching in our University is very good. But in my opinion sometime it lacks. The teaching style of some professors could have been better and those class are not intuitive also. Other than that everything looks fine and if someone wants to pursue research he or she might feel this is the best place to do it.

    Placements

    This is a category where our University lacks the most because being a master program it doesn't have any placement as such. show the quality of placements is not at all great in our department but some other departments welcome companies for campusing and that is a great thing. I don't know much about how the average salary offered because we don't have that kind of experience.

    Value for Money

    University of Calcutta is definitely the best in terms of value for money education. With averaging academic fees of 6k to 10k per year, it is one of the most affordable education institution to be in.

    Campus Life

    Campus life of university is one of the plus point of it. Student gets too much involved in studies as well as sports and recreational activities. The location of all University is one of the best I can say. The place is also filled with greenery so we don't have any issue with environmental perspectives. It is definitely a safe zone. As the situation of our anniversary is very good it can easily handle emergencies.

    Others

    All in all I can say that if someone wants a value for money education with great infrastructure and great campus life he or she can definitely opt for this university. But I must say that the resources of our University are not being used to its utmost potential and there it needs a lot of improvement.

    It was nice reviewing my college to this site.

    College Infrastructure

    College's infrastructure is genuinely too good of my College with everything properly organized and well maintained at the same time. Food and canteen is hygienic of my college. College also has a well established sport area inside the campus.

    Academics

    Teacher are also well qualified with good teaching abilities and student friendly in respect to communicating with them. Everything of the College is up to date which is related to the course and academic of a student.

    Placements

    Placement is the area where my college lacks because there is extremely limited companies that comes to our college as compare to the number of students in my college. But at the same time, I was never the part of placement process so it's not possible to state the level of selection process.

    Value for Money

    College's infrastructure, facilities, education and hygiene is the reason why I feel outstanding in case of value of money

    Campus Life

    Campus life is satisfactory as the campus is not that huge in area but yes, it's well maintained to handle any situation.

    Others

    College is so far good for me.

    Academics

    I am a student of Bsc. Botany department.From my point of view the syllabus and the curriculum is updated enough and also the faculties are also friendly in behaviour.They are trying to clear all the doubts that we have and also the labs are providing well equipped instrument that helped us a lot.

    Placements

    As a Bsc student, the college is not provided any job opportunities.But every year lots of Bcom students went for the job placement and bagged various jobs from the last past 10 although we'll get the internship opportunities if we score good marks and maintain our CGPA around 9 to 9.5.

    Value for Money

    Around ₹8000 was my first semester fee.Lodging anf food cost for me another ₹6000 per month and around 1200 for a personal tutor.All in all food is cheap.The college doesn't have its own hostel.But there are ample of them available nearby.

    Awesome experience

    College Infrastructure

    Everything is perfect here in CU. From faculty members to administration everything is A+ here. In context to education quality, it comes just after JU. The new technology campus is just awesome. I love it so much .

    Academics

    I'm doing BTech in Information Technology. Serves me very good opportunity here . Many companies arrive here for placement. The subject is also very trending in the market. CU has this additional quality of training students as per research orientation. Good environment here.

    Placements

    The placements here are absolutely fantastic. Many of the news is heard from our seniors are that the placement here comes after ju placement which is absolutely correct. Chemical department here is best.

    Value for Money

    The cost of the 4 years is around 35000. Because it is a government college , the fees here is very less. And the quantity of education is exceptionally good. Yes, the Money is worth it. Because nowhere in india Btech can be done with so little money.

    Campus Life

    I personally haven't enjoyed campus life because of covid. All our classes till now are held in online mode. So I cannot really say about that but as far as I heard , it's outstanding. But not as large as JU

    Others

    Everything is okay here. But the length of questions is tremendous. I generally hate to answer lengthy questions. It would be better if CU can include some MCQ in their paper as well. That would do a lot in terms of marks.

    College Infrastructure

    Very Old infrastructure. British Time infrastructure. There is no wifi anything. The library is there but not so many updated books. There is no smartboard. Not very well maintained. It has a big building with the old structure of Britisher time. List is there but hardly working. And not well maintained.

    Academics

    I studied the Master in Finance and Accounts to gain some quality stuff and interesting things about Finance. It didn't goes into depth of many subjects. But it's has a huge syllabus with touch upon every subject and topics.

    Placements

    2 or 3 companies come for placement. Hardly 5% of people get the placement from during courses. They don't get the job because the quality of education not that compelling. The person who gets the job is just with a salary between 10k to 20k.

    Value for Money

    Very less expensive than any other college. But it's a Government-funded college. For poor this is better course to create own path.

    Campus Life

    It's for the people who don't want to study properly. Like just to have a Master degree. So I didn't spent so much on compus. Some Teacher are sober and friendly. Few teacher is very arrogant.

    Others

    I prefer those who just want to have a master degree with basic knowledge. The person who can mug up can do better in this. Yes, no doubt this is the very inexpensive course you will in your whole life. Fees are very low and very supportive to a person who is not rich to afford big cost degree.

    Being an age old institution having completed its 175th year, CU is now a heritage structure with British architecture still donning its campus. Since its a Govt owned institution, the infrastructure is improving every passing day however there still scope for further improvements

    Academics

    The curriculum is now updated with CBCS system spread over 4 semesters with a research methodology paper. I would advise a mandatory internship for a period of 2 months which can further improve experiences of the students

    The University’s commerce department has a placement cell but that does not appear to be active. Very few corporates are tied up and that too the offerings are not that lucrative. The dept needs to work on the placement opportunities for its students
