Navigating Academia and Beyond.

Placements: St. Xaviers University offers BMS Hons to around 150 students. It is divided into three sections. There are 50 students in each class. Top recruiting companies for our course are Deloitte, Wipro, etc. I am just a 1st-year student here, but I have heard from our seniors that the top recruiting company for our course is Deloitte.

Satisfied with my decision to take admission in St Xavier's University Kolkata.

Placements: Placements are obviously given to Master's students, but having a good CGPA can help undergraduate students to get placements. Companies working with finance, marketing come for recruitments. Internships are also provided by the college. Most of the students get placed after their degree.

Our college provides good infrastructure.

Placements: Around 20% of students got placed in our college. It is very difficult to get placements. Placement chances are very low. If you did not have good grades or get an arrear, you won't get any placements in this college. Interships are easy to get. Top recruiting companies are Deloitte, Wipro, ITC, TCS, and Infosys.

I am satisfied with the infrastructure.

Placements: Our university provides over 90% placement for our course, and 70% of students are placed. Nearly 78% of students interned with Millennium Post, Echo of India, and others. Over 45% of students get placements through campus drives, with salary packages ranging from 1.5 to 4 LPA.

Quality education with good opportunities in research and even greater faculty.

Placements: 100% of students got internships in reputed institutions like CU and CDAC. Some of the companies visiting for the campus drive includes Blue Fame Labs and IIFON. Some of the roles offered in the 2024 batch includes research assistant, software developer, etc.

Modern facilities and improved technologies.

Placements: Those students who were willing to do so were placed. Most of them opted for higher studies, but even then the university provides ample placement opportunities. Some of them got placed in Cognizant, TCS, and other companies as well. Overall, it rests upon how good the student is.
