Delhi College of Arts and Commerce - A blissfully cozy world.
Placements: The course that I opted for does not provide for any placements on an immediate basis. However, the courses related to commerce and economics provided decent and, in certain cases, above-average placements to the students. Therefore, from the sidelines, the placements are worthy enough.
Infrastructure: The college is one of the smallest in Delhi. The campus is pretty cozy and on the other hand, the sporting facilities are not something that can be ragged about. The computer lab and the library, on the other hand, are the ones that have a decent bit of rumor that can be called apt to a certain benchmark. The classes are decent in size to accommodate at least 40 people in the room.
Faculty: One of the best things about the college that pretty much makes up for all the shortcomings are the faculty members. On the other hand, the curriculum is pretty much based on the CBCS and LOCF, which are in line with the CUET-PG and UGC-NET. Thus, the faculty, the academics and the fora related to that are pretty commendable about the college.

Satisfied with faculty members the most and the infrastructure is average.
Placements: Alth History Honours is not a placement oriented course but still a lot of opportunities are being given in the college, in the form of lectures and sessions by prominent people in their respective fields. We get to learn their experience and expertise in the field.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure here at DCAC is average, there are two major buildings for classes and a big and extensive library is being provided. There are also medical and resting rooms being provided on the first floor and it is very easily accessible. There is also a cricket ground and a basketball court.
Faculty: The good part of being here is the faculty. They are highly qualified in their respective fields. They try to solve all the doubts of everyone. The teachers try to solve the problem of not only subject related but personal too. They try to make students understand all the topics.
Other: The reason for choosing the course is, it fascinates me the most. It can become more engaging by using present context.

This college has an affordable fee structure, and has great environment to study and learn.
Placements: Around 52 students are placed. The internships are very few and most students get internships. The highest salary package offered is 6 LPA.
Infrastructure: The classrooms are not good, the walls are not even plastered. The washroom is not always clean. It does not have an auditorium instead students have a multipurpose hall. It provides a ground for football which is also very small, but the basketball court is good. It does not have projectors in the classrooms.
Faculty: Teachers are very good, knowledgeable, and experienced. It is easy to study at DCAC as the faculty members are good apart from that the crowd is also good so, if students are serious about their studies DCAC is a good choice for students.
Other: The metro nearby is Bhikaji cama, it is walking distance from this college. The scholarships are available for STT and SC students. The campus is small, but the environment is very good and friendly. The fests are also good, and it all depends on the students. Sarojini Nagar market is also nearby and if students want a park to relax then the park is also in available in this college.

It is a DU college with it's own flavor.
Placements: Most of the students who opt for this course are UPSC aspirants, so there isn't a question about placements. Talking about corporate sector jobs and other jobs like archaeology, historiography, teaching, and even research-based jobs, you would require to go for a master's degree in History because the bachelor's degree alone isn't enough. Otherwise, a degree in history from Delhi University alone is quite enough to take you into multiple sectors of reputed government jobs.
Infrastructure: No hostel facility is available for outstation students, so they have to manage their accommodation at some other place like PGs or private hostels. This is a reality and almost 80% of Delhi University colleges. Students preferred to stay in PGs, where facilities like food, drinking water, laundry, electricity, Wi-Fi, etc., are provided and the charges are included in the rent itself. So they don't have to run after all of these. We have two buildings, an older building which was constructed around the 1980s and a new building which was constructed around 2010. Basically, the older building isn't in very good condition. The new building is an average one with facilities like computer labs, libraries, and committee rooms being located there. The infrastructure more or less resembles a typical high school, but I would suggest not to get distracted by the state of infrastructure.
Faculty: The college is famous for its faculty members in the departments of humanities and journalism, and the commerce faculty is also highly qualified. In B.A. Honors in History course, I would say the faculty is one of the best in the whole Delhi University circuit. Teachers are highly qualified and the head of the department is also a quite reputed faculty. Other faculty members such as associate and assistant professors are also good and reach out to students in case of doubts, and are highly qualified. The course curriculum is the same as the whole Delhi University CBCS syllabus. Most of the students who opt for this course are aspirants for the UPSC examination. Even students with diverse career options like archaeology, historiography, and other professions in a similar domain would find the course very helpful. The semester examinations are centrally conducted by the Delhi University, as always. The examinations are quite up to the mark. They would surely question your knowledge and demand some critical analysis. Overall, it would be a fruitful experience.
