My Review of This College
Placements: Placement opportunities provided by the college are good. From the 3rd semester, students become eligible for campus placement. Companies visit our college and offer an average package of 3 LPA. Axis, HDFC, TCS, Wockhardt, ICICI Bank, Max Life Insurance, Ruchi Industries, and many more come for placement. The highest package offered under M.A. in Economics was 15 LPA. The college is tried and connected to various MNCs, which offer a wide variety of jobs and internships based on the merit attained by the student. Apart from that, students have to undergo mandatory internships in order to gain industry-based experience.
Infrastructure: Hostel rooms have enough space for two people. Hostels are neat and well-furnished. The management also looks after the maintenance most of the time. The hostel's mess food is also good, and there is a canteen where all types of food and snacks are available.
Faculty: Faculty members are very qualified and helpful. They focus on every student and provide better education to all. Along with regular faculty members, they also have visiting faculty members from specific industries. They try their best in every possible way. They arrange guest lectures as well. The M.A. Economics course is a two-year program divided into 4 semesters, with regular midterms and assignments for each subject. They have a semester system, organizing two semesters each year. Internals are of 40 marks, and externals are of 60 marks. Attendance is important for appearing in both exams.

My review of this college.
Placements: Placements are very high in this college. It offers placements from several multinational companies. Placements take place in the fourth semester, where several companies and banks recruit students. The selection process is based on merit as decided by the company, followed by an interview. Companies like Amazon, HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, Jio Finance, Cognizant, Accenture, Deloitte, and KPMG visited the college, and a lot of offers were made. The lowest salary package is 2.5 LPA, and the highest salary package offered, according to me, is around 12 LPA. 80% of students get placements every year.
Infrastructure: Hostel rooms are neat and clean. The campus is also very hygienic and reflects a nice nature. The hostel rooms are well-cleaned and painted. There are separate hostels available for both girls and boys, and faculty members. The mess food is hygienic and provides some variety on a regular basis. There are many private PGs right outside the campus, starting.
Faculty: Faculty members are so experienced. They are very qualified and are like our own guardian who has given their best to help us accomplish the best. I also like how teachers teach and explain things. The environment of classrooms is very good. I feel very comfortable over there and there are no issues about the assess to faculty members of the college. There are 4 semesters in a course for a duration of 2 years. Before the semester exam, an internal exam is conducted for everyone. 70% is for external and 30% for internal exams. Attendance is also given a weight of 5%. The course of M.A. in Economics honours is a theoretical and practical subject. The first semester is the basic revision of concepts and past knowledge. There are theories as well as mathematical, statistical, and econometric subjects.

My review about this college.
Placements: The placement and job opportunities were tried and managed at their best because as your final year starts, numerous companies were there to interview you. A large number of the students had been placed in very reputed law firms, corporate houses, LPOs, NGOs, etc. Leading companies visited the campus to recruit students. During my batch, HDFC, ICICI, Reliance, and Max Life Insurance were some of the companies for the training. The placement was the trust area of the college. They offered around 5 LPA to 6 LPA, and the highest package was last time 25 LPA.
Infrastructure: Our college did not have a hostel. So normally, most of the students stay in PGs. The cost for boys PG and girls PG differs. For girls it would be around Rs 8,000 per month while for us boys, it was Rs 12,000 per month. One room was shared by two people each and it was quite spacious.
Faculty: Faculty members of the college were highly educated. All professors were Ph.D. holders, studied at JNU, Delhi School of Economics, and even some foreign universities. There was a department of economics where all the professors sat together, and one could approach them anytime. Semester system was going through our college. There were internals and semester exams for each subject and every semester. Also, the project submissions which were very important during the time of internals. The day goes very hectic but during the time of semesters, we get enough holidays between exams. Course curriculum was very rigorous as you had to follow the enormous syllabus regularly with the classes. The in-house exams were conducted from time to time for the partial syllabus and the end semester exams were held for the complete syllabus.
