West Bengal University of Animal and Fishery Sciences Review By Aritra Pal

I have come to know about this college from one of my friends and that's all. It has turned my life. This college provides you the best facilities along with a world class library, hostel, and mess. The co-curricular activities along with the study tour and training programme make our college life too much interesting. I shall highly recommend you to take admission without a fear of unemployment.

The course Bachelor of Fisheries Science consists of major 9 departments that are AAH, AEM, FRM, AQC, FEG, FES, FES, FPT, and FNFT. Each and every department is filled with highly knowledgeable professors and laboratories. We have received best academic college of the year several times including this year also. Teachers guide us like a friend. We also have a library with around 3000+ books which are not easy to find out in the market. The eligibility criteria for this course are HS or equivalent exams. Cut-off for general is about 92%. The best part is every year the placement cell works efficiently and about some percent scholars get placed in different companies and government projects.

The faculties are very highly educated and knowledgeable. They are also very helpful and friendly in nature to provide the best academic environment. Their scholars do research in foreign also. NASA and ISRO also recruit them surprisingly. Our faculty members also actively work for the placement cell to ensure our student's future.

Placement is very good in our campus. Mostly UG students do MFSc and PhD from here. But those who want to do jobs and want to grab experience; they can easily opt out for the campus placements. Average salary package is about 9-10 Lacs per annum offered by different companies like Godrej Agrovet, IBM, etc. Unemployment is a big NO in our campus.

Our hostel is one of the cheapest hostels of WB. It costs only 300/month. UG hostel building has 3 floors where each floor has 10 rooms and also 1 common room is there. PG building has 2 floors with 20 rooms and 1 common room. Ladies hostel has 3 floors with 37 rooms with 1 common room. Hostel rooms are wide and spacious. Natural air and light flows day-long. The rooms and the spaces are cleaned everyday by staffs.

Our campus consists of 1 big faculty building (main), where library and 8 of the departments are situated. 1 building for Dept of AAH and the classrooms of 2nd year and 3rd year. Also 1 separate Building is for 1st year students. 1 mess along with Table Tennis board, 1 guest house, and 3 hostels (UG, PG, Girls') are there. Also it has 2 hatcheries for our field-based works and 2 pounds for some research purposes.

Every year our college organises annual sports, annual cultural meet, and an annual fest. Several famous bands of Bengal come to our campus to perform. Also our college participates in All India Sports meet and Agri-Uni Fest also. This year I also took part in the fest which was held in Bangalore. Co-curricular activities are mind-blowing. Separate sports and cultural committee is there to provide the best facilities in their own departments.
