Holistic experience merging academics, co-curricular activities and building intra-personal skills.
Placements: About 60% of students from my batch including all courses, were placed in various companies. The highest package in campus was offered by D. E Shaw, Hyderabad of 16.5 Lacs per annum. The roles included Financial Analyst and work in the field of Research and Operations. On account of internships being included in the curriculum, all students got internships over the summer in various companies and organisations respective to the course.
Infrastructure: Two computer labs, Media lab, a well-equipped two-storied library and sufficient number of large classrooms were present in campus. The infrastructure is modern, and canteen food includes ample variety. The campus also houses a stationary shop for the convenience of students.
Faculty: The teachers in all departments are approachable and friendly. They are ever-ready to help the students and devote their extra time to help students with their dissertation project. The curriculum is relevant to some extent but according to me, it needs to be more rigorous and industry-focused. For a multi-disciplinary course like MEP, the curriculum must be more flexible for students to develop their knowledge in their preferred major.
Other: I chose this course for its multidisciplinary nature. It helped me merge my interests and learn the subjects I wished to pursue. The best thing about my course is that it equips the students with technical knowledge from the media field, policy analysis from the Political Science field and subjects like Econometrics and Research Methodology to enhance the research skills of students. Improvement of the course would be to increase flexibility in the subjects, addition of more electives in order to cater to students' specific career goals. The campus crowd is brilliantly diverse, and the location of the campus involves the perks of the city along with natural beauty. The college hosts several fests including its flagship event Querencia, Raabta, Aarambh, Amroha and so on. The college also provides academic and co-curricular scholarships to worthy students to reward their hard work.

We have good faculty and staff, campus life is amazing, and facilities are satisfactory.
Placements: Most of the students get placed in our course. If you do your work well and make the best out of your opportunity there is no need to worry. The best part of studying 3 courses is that I have more options. Students from our course can apply for internships in the fields of media or economics or political science.
Infrastructure: Facilities provided are good, and discipline is also maintained. There are various canteens which have good food and wide varieties available to the students. We have a huge and very resourceful library along with many labs. An infirmary is there too for medical cases.
Faculty: Teachers are extremely hard-working and knowledgeable. They are always ready to help students with their questions and even provide career advice. Most of the teachers are very approachable as well as good in what they do. The course curriculum is also very relevant.

Satisfied with the college moreover because of the faculty.
Placements: The placements have been decent in the campus with our batch. Companies are coming every second day for recruitment and are taking decent no. of students according to their requirements. Being a humanities student it's a bit hard for us to find a proper company that suits the kind of work that we want to do especially even after almost 6 months no media firm has come to the campus.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is one of the best thing about christ. From well equipped classrooms to properly functioning labs everything is just on point. The auditorium is one of the best in the city and different room for different purposes makes it easier and convenient for any event to happen
Faculty: Our batch being the first batch of the triple major MEP struggled a bit at the beginning but things got better with time. The techers are really cooperative and gives constructive feedback that helps a student to improve everyday. They make the best use of the one hour given to them. Innovative teaching methods is just an icing on the cake.
