Structure

[edit]

The article should start with a good introduction, giving the full complete official name of the college/university including Bengali name, detail about location (Urban, Suburban), founder and founding name, and affiliation with any larger university system, if applicable. Give other names for which the university may be known (e.g. Cal, and bold them, too). Also, add a few facts about the college/university that make it unique.

Next, there is an infobox about the college/university. A template for the infobox can be found at the bottom of this page.

  • History -- Describe the history of the college/university, including noteworthy milestones in its development.
  • Campus -- Describe the overall shape and size of the campus. Mention any famous buildings and their architects. This section could be expanded to include satellite campuses:
  • Organization --
    • Administration -- Mention the administration, including leading officials. If this college/university has a special organizational structure, such as a residential college system, then it should be mentioned here.
    • Department -- Mention the departments and their degree programmes.
    • Students and faculty -- State the number (and any other useful statistics) of the students. Distinguish between undergraduate, graduate and postgraduate students; also state the number of faculty members. Distinguish between full- and part-time (if possible).
  • Sports, clubs, and traditions -- Mention the sports team(s), club(s) of the college/university and what is notable about them. Here is also a good place to mention specific traditions of the college/university, like students' union activities, a student newspaper, fraternities, regular activities, etc. The heading may be changed accordingly in regard to the importance of sports, clubs, traditions, students' unions etc. For example, alternative headings could be Student's club, Students' Union, Sports and Traditions or Students' Union Activities.
  • Noted alumni -- Bullet list of Alumni that are notable/famous. Mention the graduation date and degree and give a short description why they are famous.
  • Noted faculty -- Bullet list of active and former members of faculty that are notable. If they are alumni/alumnae, mention them here in parenthesis, including the degree and graduation date. For all give a short description why they are famous.
  • External links -- Give a link to the website of the college/university, preferable in the English language.
  • Template -- Add appropriate University template at the bottom of the (article) page.
