Accommodation
Hostel
Ours is not a residential University. However, we try our best to provide accommodation to needy students from areas outsidegreater Calcutta or from other parts of the Country.
Dormitory
There are 13 (4 for Girls and 9 for Boys) hostels with provision for accommodating over 1300 students. Accommodation in both Women’s hostel and Boys’ hostel falls much short of the demand and efforts are being made for extension of the existing buildings and construction of new buildings.
Hostel Mess is conducted by the Students Mess Committee under the guidance of the Superintendent of the respective hostel. The Main Hostel complex is situated outside the campus.At the Main Hostel complex, the P.G. Hostels as well as at the Ladies’ Hostels there are private canteens supervised by the Students’ Committee. We have an exclusive hostel for Research Scholars. A few Research Scholars are accommodated in the Old P. G. and New P.G. Hostels.
