How is it like to be a part of Presidency University!

Likes

I like the facilities available including air conditioner, lab equipments, projector screen for slideshow, canteen and overall the campus
I also appreciate the faculties because they have studied in highly reputed institutes and undoubtedly teach the best.
I like how the college focuses not only on academics but also on co curricular. Sports, cultural functions, workshops are held frequently. It keeps the students engaged in fruitful activities

Dislikes

I do not like the multidisciplinary courses that we have to study in the first year making it little burdened for the students.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is very relevant as it provides us an overall knowledge of biology and not dividing it into various sections rather giving us an insight of every aspect of biology. It includes everything such as microbiology, zoology, botany, physiology, molecular biology and so on.

KALIMPONG TO KOLKATA: A BLEND OF LEARNING AND CITY LIVING.

Likes

The time spent in my college was transformative both academically and personally. The college faculty was one of the top tier to consider for the best academic results. While the curriculum was demanding , it verily prepared me for upcoming exams
Though my overall experience is a mix of highs and lows. I appreciated how the mentors guided me and helped me engage in different campus events. The faculty in Economics Department were knowledgeable , though their teaching styles varied.
As for the girls to boys ratio, I don't have the precise statistics .

Dislikes

On the flip side, I felt that there must be an improvement in the infrastructure particularly the labs and the library space.
The placement facility and internships chances are not really adequate. While the placement cell tried their best , the success for internships and placements was limited.
Sports and others activities are not given chances. The curriculum felt outdated and lacked new innovations and activities that would allow students to engage in other than academics

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the course curriculum in terms of relevance as moderately relevant.My decision to choose this course was primarily influenced by its research learning facility and practical based learning.The curriculum helps each individual to prepare for further comepetitive exams and expanding their jobs option with full and profound knowledge of data based works and computer skills.To enhance the course curriculum and teaching methods , I would suggests dedicating deep learning with lots of real life examples, updating the syllabus to recent advancements Providing recorded lectures would be of so much help and providing more opportunities for students to present their work giving them detailed feedback would improve the skills and learning capacity of the students.

All About Presidency University

Likes

Quality of Education was really up to the mark.
Spacious ground and auditoriums and halls
Lots of sports and cultural events organized.

Dislikes

Some of the professor can be difficult to deal with
No inter college sports fest held in my period
quality of teaching is not up to the mark.

Course Curriculum Overview:

the program emphasizes core economic theories , mathematical techniques, and statistical methods. the inclusion of maths, stats, and econometrics helps in developing analytical and problem - solving skills, all of which are important for real world. there is exposure to various branches of economics. the curriculum integrates data analysis, evaluation, and case studies, which are useful in careers in academia, corporate sector, banking, etc. According to me the places to improve include: Update the curriculum with emerging topics Professors being a little more student friendly more practical exposure more research opportunities there are semester wise exams and due to covid we had to cover a lot in less time than usual. It is a difficult course but doable.

Presidency University: the building block of my career

Likes

Excellent professors who possess immense experience in their field of research from reputed institutes
Top notch curriculum at Bachelors and Masters level preparing students for higher studies, opens door for competitive exams and jobs as well
Logistics and infrastructure is beyond imagination comparable to private colleges. Department of Mathematics is newly constructed and centralized AC

Dislikes

The grading system is not transparent, just a CGPA point may judge students properly. The scholarship authorities often ask for percentage or total marks instead of CGPA and university do not share actual marks with students.
University do not organise any convocation ceremony, do not recognise the rank holders and toppers properly. Gold medallists are yet to receive their medals.
Authorities are often reluctant about basic needs of a student, some rules needs immediate modification.

Course Curriculum Overview:

1. The syllabus of Presidency University is comparable with ISI, CMI's. It has almost everything that a student need to flourish him/herself towards higher Mathematics, 2. Not just the curriculum, Presidency University has a good set of experienced faculty members to successfully execute the syllabus. 3. Although UGC has implemented almost same syllabus throughout country, with the help of excellent faculty memebers and initiative of the HOD, Presidency University always stand far ahead than other college, Universities in the state. At the end of the course, the students of Presidency University are supposed to be more prepared than any other college students. 4. Presidency University teaches basic to advance level algebra and analysis in the first year itself. 5. More importantly, Presidency University offers a lot of various elective papers that are usually not offered in any other colleges at undergraduate level such as Functional Analysis, Differential Geometry, Theory of ODE and dynamical systems etc. 6. In each semester, there are two exams, one at the mid and one at the end of semester. Also depending upon the teacher, there are internal assesment methods such as class tests, presenations etc. 7. The teachers interacts with the students very frequently inside and outside the class hours.

Basically it is a research and honors level institution.. so most of the students choose to do ms phd from here or abroad.. so no such vibrant placements are seen. If anyone want it can be a 5 to 6 lacs per annum. Yes this university has a placement cell.

Insights and Experiences: A Comprehensive Review of College Life

Likes

The campus is really nice. It's the oldest college in all across Asia and almost all the virtual people in all across India have studied here.
The environment. The environment here is nice and friendly
The classrooms are big and airy. The laboratories are well equipped.

Dislikes

The syllabus is sometimes not student friendly. We have our JAM exam on February next year and the 5th semester syllabus is huge.
Our faculties are genuinely brilliant. But some of them are not so good at teaching. So this sometimes creates trouble regarding finishing the syllabus.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I like chemistry. That's why I chose this course. I already mentioned previously that the 5th semester syllabus is huge with is not favourable for IIT JAM exam. The syllabus should be more concised and the semester should have atleast 6 months gap.
