It is a well developed university.

Placements: Almost 40% of the students got placements. It is a well-developed university. Companies like TCS, Tesla, and Tata would take the students in their companies. The highest package offered was 7 LPA -9 LPA for the foreign students and any one can avail this and the lowest was 3 LPA -4 LPA.

The economics department of our university is very good, it has 2 noble laureates as our alumni.

Placements: The placements after graduation are very rare from our department because most students from our department go for M.Sc from DSE, JNU, etc., they either enter into education sectors i.e schools, college or into the corporate sector after their masters. Our alumni network is very strong thus after completion of masters' students could have a good life ahead.

Go and reach in your dreams.

Placements: Apprpx 80 to 90% students are placed in my course. In the first year of M.Sc. various course is offered by the institute and in the 2nd year, students get an opportunity to research on a short term project on their interests. Students get a good expose from here.

What you must know about Presidency University, Kolkata before stepping in.

Placements: I joined Presidency University in 2018 in the department of Bengali for graduation. The placement cell of the university has been inactive for quite a long time now. I have not seen any company to come to our campus for placement. So the condition of the placement is very poor. So is the condition of getting internship from the course I am pursuing. Students can try themselves to get a part-time or full-time job. But it is very rare to see companies to come and recruit employees from our campus.

It is a good college for physics Hons with great faculty members and good infrastructure.

Placements: Physics is not a technical course, so there is no such placement in this course. However, it is the best course to go for higher studies. Students can get a chance to do their PhD from abroad.

Presidency has a historical legacy and is excellent now.

Placements: I am currently studying an undergraduate course in science (biology). The current scenario is that graduates from any discipline of science are not very employable. They get jobs after completing a minimum of a master's degree. Our college offers a master's programme. If you study a master's under the bachelor's programme, then there are fairly good chances to get admission to a master's programme because a fair number of admissions are reserved for the home quota in our college.

College days were the golden days of my life.

Placements: There is no such company recruitment in our course. But definitely, there are placement opportunities in future for PhD graduates or being a lecturer at some college. Moreover, internship opportunities were at a huge level, and our teachers helped a lot.

Review of Presidency University, Kolkata.

Placements: The placement committee invites a few companies to our campus, and notable they are Deloitte, D E Shaw. However, most of the students opt to pursue Masters, so only a few students attend placements. The college doesn't have an internship cell. Everyone who attends the placements got placed in their respective choices.
