Review for BCDA college of pharmacy and technology .

Placements: The percentage of placement is approximately more than 80 percent. But many of the students of this college are pursuing higher study. This college also provides master of pharmacy. The minimum package is approximately 2.5 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Tornado pharma, Glenmark, Cipla, etc. And many students go to pharmacovigilance.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is good. This college is quite strong because it is the oldest college in West Bengal. But at this college, the lab and library are very advanced. In the classroom, a projector is available. And teaching and non-teaching staffs are very responsible about their professions .

Faculty: In this college, each and every faculty member is very responsible for their professions. They also try to do their best. They are very helpful to students academics. All faculty have too much knowledge about their subjects. Due to these faculty members, our college got ranked. The course curriculum is also relevant. Students have to do proper industry training to complete the course. Semesters are quite difficult because we are students in undergraduate courses. Pass percentage is 100%.

Other: I chose this course because, from the very beginning of my student life, I have had an interest in the medical field, as well as in the field of making medicine and learning about medicine and how it works. Our college's main front should be more attractive because it's a very good college.

BCDA college is one of the best colleges under WBJEE.

Placements: Many of students don't appear in on-campus placement; they go for off-campus more or less all of the time. The average package is 204000 per year. Recruiting companies include Sun Pharma, Cipla, and Dr. Reddy's. Many students had done there internships in various pharmaceutical industries. Marketing and industrial area both came for placement .

Infrastructure: Faculty members are well experienced, and there are 3–7 doctoral holders in facilities but 4-6 faculty members joined in the current academic year; they do not have that much experience, which is required for giving a lecture at a college. There are no hostels available, but the canteens are reasonably priced.

Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and they also qualified from good universities like BHU and NBU. Teaching quality is good. Yes, this course curriculum is good enough for students to go into industry because of the laboratory teaching. The semester conducted by MAKAUT is very tough. Many students got backlog each semester .

Other: I just like that line. The best thing about this course is to help others with honesty Our motto is "Service to Humanity." They can provide Wi-Fi. No festival is organized but each year a reunion is organized, which is not less than a festival. They provide government scholarship like svmcm.
