College of Vocational Studies, University of Delhi College review.

Placements: As I was from history hons. Hence all students started doing further studies. Some did internships too. Many students or batchmates of mine were prepared for the government examination including myself. I think this college was better for all the courses. As the course that I was doing didn't offer any placements or something like that, therefore many started preparing for government jobs.

Infrastructure: Facilities available for my course included Wi-Fi, classrooms, library, and labs. Quality of the food was not as good compared to other colleges. But the medical facility was nice. We also had sports and games facilities, with monthly and weekly tournaments for students who wanted to play.

Faculty: Faculty members were very qualified but not helpful. They did not provide the required knowledge to the students. The curriculum contained very old technologies. The semester exams were not difficult. The situation was such that teachers did not cover the right portions, and they included different topics in the exams. The checking was not tough, leading to difficulties for students during exams.

CVS- College for Vikas & Success.

Placements: In the history course, students are not entitled to college placement. In other courses, however, placements take place through the college placement cell. In my course, only 2 students got government internships at the National Museum in New Delhi for a month.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are average with old desks. However, in the SNB, new desks have been installed. Wi-Fi service is there on every floor, but the connection is poor. CVS doesn't have any hostels. The food provided in the canteen is average for the price point. The college has a sports room with basic sports equipment.

Faculty: Teachers are really helpful overall. The history faculty is qualified, as most have completed their Ph.D. The teaching quality is overall good, as teachers regularly conduct their classes in both Hindi and English. They use lucid language to deliver their lectures.

College of vocational studies: A missed opportunity.

Placements: *Our college only provides placement to vocational courses, computer courses, and commerce courses. * Unfortunately, no placement is provided by college for my course (history honors). * Internship to history students are provided by government institutes such as Ministry of External Affairs, National Museum, NITI Aayog, etc. * Only one student is doing an internship at the National Museum.

Infrastructure: * Our library has a large number of books and journals for references. It's fully air-conditioned. * Our college doesn't provide hostel facilities. * WiFi routers are installed, but their signals are weak. * College canteen provides moderate-level food at reasonable prices.

Faculty: * Yes, teachers are very nice and generous; they always solves doubts and they are qualified, as most of them have done PhD or are pursuing PhDs. * Semester examinations are moderate, neither too easy nor too hard. In my course, History honors, the semester exam is 90 marks and out of 8 questions, you have to only attempt 4 questions.

Overall review of College of Vocational Studies, University of Delhi.

Placements: As such, in history, our college does not offer placements but overall, in academics, it is too good. Students are doing internships on their own, and teachers are also helping in finding various internship programs in government organizations. In our college, students are also given the chance to become part of various committees, like the Nasha Mukt Bharat Club, internal grievances committee, electoral literary club, etc.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very good, with so much space, greenery and a positive environment. In all buildings, Wi-Fi is available with proper ventilation in rooms, and the library is fully air-conditioned. As such, there is no hostel in our college. The food in our canteen is delicious and pocket-friendly. But there is not much availability of sports and games in our college .

Faculty: Teachers are well qualified and knowledgeable and the way they teach us is superb. They tell more about historical events and provide study material from time to time so that we can prepare it thoroughly. Semester exams are not very difficult and if you have studied, you can excel.

Other: I have a deep interest in history and historical events so that's why I chose this course and I am happy. The best thing about this course is that it deals with present-day things. Understanding the past from the present makes it a very different subject. If some changes occur in our college, I want to improve sports facilities, grow our infrastructure, have all rooms air-conditioned, and have tours and placements in our college. Events that occur here are the best that make it different from those that occur in college. Societies here are very good with their connections, and our campus also provides scholarships for those students who belong to the reservation category.

A true review from the depth of my heart.

Placements: As our course is a traditional course, not a skill-based or technical course, placement in our course is not provided by the college. But there are other courses as well, like B.Com, in which college placements are available for students. Almost all the students who are interested in taking placement get placed in different companies.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is average. Well-furnished classes and Wi-Fi facility are available. The air-conditioned library has an abundance of books. Hostel facility is not provided by the college. One has to take a PG or flat to live near the college. The average rent of a PG is 10,000.

Faculty: One of the best things about my college is our faculty. The teaching staff is well-educated, qualified, and helpful. The curriculum of our course is also very vast, which provides insightful knowledge of History to us. Semester exams are not so difficult. They are easy to moderate in nature. The passing percentage is 33%.

Other: Social life on the college campus is very nice. A number of events are organized in college from time to time. A lot of extracurricular activities are also conducted in college.

Everything was fine except administration work.

Placements: Around 70 to 80 percent of the students were placed in courses, and the details of the packages are uncertain, but some of the graduate seniors are doing great in their lives, and some of them have become assistant commissioners of different regions. There were several companies that came for other recruitment in technical subjects, such as Hewitt, Genpact, Tommy Hilfiger, Ernst & Young, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure facilities are very good here, and even though there are two separate buildings, a wide variety of courses are available here, and even a third new building is in progress. Besides, there is a Wi-Fi connection in every important room, including admin, computer labs, boys and girls common rooms, libraries, seminar halls, new buildings, etc. As far as hostels are concerned, there is no affiliated hostel of the college, but there are several PGs nearby that are really good. Moreover, the canteen facility is absolutely one of the best things about this college. They serve every possible dish and snack that students could think of, including their favorite ones like samosas and chhole puri. In addition, there is a huge football field along with a basketball court, a volleyball court, and a cricket pitch, which invites a wide variety of students to play on the field in their free time and is also supported by a medical room in case of any emergency.

Faculty: Teachers were really helpful; they were highly qualified and friendly towards the students and always tried to help them in every possible way. Their teaching methods were really impressive in the way they used to connect every concept with a thread of stories. This curriculum is really relevant as it focuses on our overall development; thus, it introduces subjects apart from general electives like Sec, Vac, and all to enhance the field of expertise of students. As far as semester exams are concerned, they are not very difficult for students who have given their best throughout the semesters, but it will be a problem for students who have taken it slightly. However, the passing percentage lies between 80 and 85 percent.

Other: I chose this course due to my interest in it and because of its popularity in this college. This course motivates students to learn from previous events that occurred in the past to make a better future and to avoid such mistakes in their lives. The syllabus of this course felt a little disappointing because of the little attention it gives to indigenous history. I hoped there were more topics about indigenous contexts rather than focusing on world aspects. There is a lot of fun the students can have here, especially at events and festivals that take place here. Every course has its own separate society, and they annually and seasonally hold their festival, which is open to all courses, and they even manage the canteen expenses for the students. Besides, every time there is a festival or event, it results in a huge crowd surrounding the campus, especially when there is a college festival, and even when there is a departmental festival as well. In extracurricular activities, there are several societies that a student could join based on their interests, like "Litcsoc Society" (the literary society), "Time Traveler Society," the electoral literacy club, etc.
