Presidency University M.A Review By Pallabi Barman

There are many universities in Kolkata, but if you want to learn and grow together then Presidency University is here to provide you with the right path to success. The College Street campus of the university is the heart of Kolkata where many students from different states come every year not only to pursue degree courses but to uplift themselves. Presidency University also offers a Ph.D. degree along with the general and honors degree course in the stream of Science and Arts. This two hundred years old university has a prestigious place in the lists of NAAC and UGC. So, if you are interested to take admission here, you have to sit for their entrance examination which is held in May/June. However, the management system of Presidency University makes the admission and enrollment process a lot easier with their student friendly policies and procedures.

Without an iota of doubt, I must say all the courses offered by Presidency University are excellent if you want to acquire practical skills in your subject. I joined their M.A course in English Literature and Language, and from my experience, I must say this course has shaped my knowledge in a more detailed way. Therefore, if you have graduated and want to pursue higher studies in your subject, don't wait and start preparing for their entrance examination. There are two types of entrance exams; PUBDET and PUMDET for admission to the bachelor's and master's degree courses respectively. Moreover, Presidency University has a wide range of subject choices for students with an innovative curriculum structure and detail oriented syllabus.

Faculty is the pillar of every educational institution and Presidency University is here for students with their highly qualified professors to provide a new way of learning. Among the seventeen departments, numerous faculty members make the whole course engaging for students and further prepare them for higher academic careers through dissertations and term papers. The syllabus, the education structure, and the teacher-student relationship are the most significant factors that will help students to grow in their fields.

So, one question that may come to your mind now is what's about the placement? I'm assuming there's no need to worry about the placement. All the departments and the student council are very sincere regarding this; they will update you from time to time about the big companies like Cognizant, TCS, CogentHub, and others. The salary may vary based on your chosen field or your skills and experience. Albeit, after finishing your graduation or post-graduation, you don't need to go anywhere for jobs. Presidency University will provide you with a place where you can show your skills and potential to the world.

The hostel is one of the memorable and greatest parts of anyone's life and the hostel facility of Presidency University delivers homely comfort to their students with the great quality of food and stay. They have total two hostels respectively for boys and girls which cost a very negligible amount. So, a student doesn't need to bother about the fees while staying outside, and also the students can enjoy their hostel life to the fullest. Now, if you're thinking of security, then I would suggest there is no need to think once. The hostels of Presidency University will always make you feel homely; safe and secure.

Presidency University has the major campus in the College Street area of Kolkata but it also has another campus in Newton. Both of the campuses come along with their big infrastructure including two-three libraries, project rooms, three canteens, a big basketball ground, two cafeterias, and numerous auditoriums. In case of medical or any other emergency, the student council takes care of every student with its utmost responsibility.

The campus life at Presidency University is enthralling and enthusiastic throughout my course. It not only allowed me to pursue higher study but also enabled me to become a more confident version of myself through continuous learning and intersections. If you are a fun lover like me then you should not miss the annual fest, Holi celebration, and other occasions at Presidency University. This is one of the best universities in India which builds a way to learn through human growth and festivities.
