What Students Say

Likes

The common room consists of games so that on free periods we can enjoy the time
supportive union. The group or the team always help us with any issues we might have
and the faculty. The professors always help us with our queries

Dislikes

I dislike the period gaps which are of sometimes 2 hours
I feel that the college ground can be improved
I expect variety kind of food in the college canteen

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I was interested in cinematography so I felt I could bloom through this course. The faculty is very supportive and friendly. They help us throughout with everything and even off-time teaching and helping with queries. There are a total of 4 professors and 3 batches containing approximately 120 students.

Class Size: 39Course Fees: INR 9000 per year

Fees and Financial Aid

The annual fee is 9000. There are multiple scholarships that can be taken. The fee structure is not very complex and is very low. No fee hike policy. The scholarship can be discussed with the officials in the administrative department.

Campus Life

We have lots of social events. The yearly fest called "Social" brings famous artists. Like last year we had K.K. There is a big library but contains fewer books for Journalism Hons students. There are lots of sports activities and we even have a common room.

Admission

The admission process was very simple as the college had its own website where everything was listed. The eligibility was 60% in 12th and 50% in 10th I guess. The website provides all the information.

An In-Depth Review of Gurudas College, Kolkata: Academics, Campus Life & More

Course Curriculum Overview:

I feel the theory part of our curriculum isn't much relevant or prepares for real - world applications, only some basic information is what I feel is necessary, although the lab and the practical part prepares us for real - world applications and teaches us a lot of things related to photography, news paper page building, survey report, etc. I believe they should have a better approach and teach more relevant real - world or in demand market skills which'll help the students in the future. Exams are conducted 2 times in a year, once between March - april, and second time between August - September.

In Depth Asutosh College

Course Curriculum Overview:

From my childhood, I'm into music and this course allows me to further widen my knowledge of the entertainment industry, films, Television and etc. So this course will allow me to understand how media and journalism world works, and help me pursue the art that I love. The timings could be better of the college, but rather than that everything is mostly good. The frequency in my opinion, should be reduced to 3 main semester exams, and to have small mid semester exams throughout. That's my perspective.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I want to be a journalist from younger age. That's why I choose the subject. And the Journalism department is very prestigious in whole South Kolkata. They will help you learn the outer knowledge also. Practical classes are very helpful. The exam held after 4/5 months. This time helps to cover the syllabus and practical classes helps a lot

South Calcutta Girls' College Review

Course Curriculum Overview:

1. I opted for this course because I thought it would have a good practical work, with good exposure and experience. But this course has nothing as such. The documentary we did was done all by ourselves. College did not help at all. There was a photo journalsm option in one paper but our college did not let us study that. They did not teach anything about photography, no practical training was given. 2. None. The curriculum doesn't prepare us for the real world at all. There is no professional study or activities. No preparation for interviews or real world jobs. Only theoretical and advices from our faculty. College doesn't provide any activity that can help us for the real world job. 3. More and more practical work with the help of college. More exposure needed. High quality software and equipments are needed. Students need a GOOD professional lab. More exciting activities for students. Placement opportunities, internships etc. 4. BAD. Per sem arrives in 2.5 months, too short time

By studying at Surendranath

Course Curriculum Overview:

Journalism is one of my favorite sudject . One of the reasons for choosing this subject is that only a journalist can highlight the good and bad aspects of our society before the people. The scope of the subject is journalism but it is huge. We can learn not only journalism but also photography, radio, film studies etc. The behaviors of all the professors in the journalism department in this college is very well. They very carefully explain all the topics thoroughly to the students so that the students do not have to face any difficulty with those topics later. Every year two semesters are taken every six months if the students do all the classes carefully and study well then they can easily pass by getting good marks
