Presidency University Kolkata

Hi,
Speaking very frankly, except some negative review almost all are positive. University has to remain in touch with corporate world, so that students come to know about the practical implementation of their bookish knowledge, and it also helps them to remain knowledgeable about current happenings. Faculties also help students in this context. But, overall the reviews are very positive.
Fee Structure and Facilities:
Fee structure is feasible, as it is a government University. I mean, it is between the ranges of a common economical background student. In my course, it is Rs 1.40 lakhs for first 3 years and in Masters Level, it is around INR. 3,500. In Master's level for science subject, it is around INR. 3, 500 and in arts subject it is around INR. 2,500, as they do not have any laboratory sessions. So, it is quite normal corresponding to any government University.
Placement Wing
Technically University does not provide internship. But, one can do that on his own. Also, there is no placement cell at all. Department gives placement every year with the help of their alumni association and their faculties also help them in this context.
Hostel Facilities
The hostel infrastructure is quite good. There are separate hostels for boys and girls, and they are a far distance apart. Girls hostel have very strict restrictions about entry timings in evening. Every student has one single room and cupboard and desk inside the room. The bathroom and dining halls are clean enough.
Alumni:
Alumni network in department is very good. But, when it comes to entire University, it somehow tears apart. But, in every department annual reunion has organized by the senior most students and in that program many seniors come and share their experiences and helps recent students as much as they can.
Faculty:
Faculties are very good in University and they are helpful. But, some new recruits should be added, as number of faculty is now quite less. This is only for subject. But, in many department there are available teachers. Almost every teacher of each department is helpful. They also guide their Ph.D students and mentor them to achieve big success in life.
Campus Life:
Every department has their own labs including computer and other research instruments. Besides, there is a central lab computing facility and one central library. Almost every year sports meet has organized by sports department and sometimes many department have played different matches respect to their own interest.
