I'm very dissatisfied with the infrastructure.
Placements: Most of the students take the M.A. Economics course because it's a popular course at the Economics College of Delhi University. Also, there are no placements of any kind provided to the students, but sometimes we get internships from our own college, like admission for new students and many more. The percentage of students who got internships is almost 50-60%.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure provided by the college is overall good, but some things are not. Sometimes there are taps in the washrooms that are leaking, and most of the time, the washrooms are in bad condition with stains. The quality of the mess food is good, and it also tastes good.
Faculty: As we talk about the studies that happen in college, the teachers are knowledgeable and very qualified. Most of the students do not attend the classes, and that's the reason the teachers mostly get angry and cut their practical marks. That's why some students fail and get a less CGPA in semester exams.
Other: The campus and its surroundings are very clean, and they give a peaceful vibe to the students. I wish that the extracurricular activities were better.

A solid learning experience with decent opportunities.
Placements: The placement for our M.A. economics course was quite good. Almost 60-70% of students got jobs and placements in top recruiting companies like EY, KPMG, and even RBI. Some lucky students got the placement and Niti Aayog and World Bank too. The most common roles like analyst, researcher, etc.
Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are overall good packages but the disappointing point is that the Wi-Fi sometimes got stuck and did not work properly. Also sometimes make a plan to study in the library and unfortunately, why not work so be had to face the problem. The canteen food was very good and tasted like our home food.
Faculty: The faculty for M.A. economics are very knowledgeable and qualified and also very supportive. Some teachers are very engaging and they teach a very difficult topic like a game. They also ask students doubts and help them a lot. Overall are good mix package of real-life experience and book theory.
Other: Most of the things are overall good but there are no scholarships provided, also campus surrounding is not so big but it is good.
