I'm satisfied with the faculty, but not satisfied with the placement.
Placements: The placement record of this college is not very good. The highest salary offered was 7 to 8 lakhs, and the lowest was 2 to 3 lakhs. The college should try to tie up with bigger companies to improve its placement record.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is very good. There is no hostel, but the library is well maintained and good. The buildings are very good, but the old block and P block buildings are very hot in summer because there is no ventilation system. The college should definitely do something about that.
Faculty: The coursework is challenging but achievable, and the teachers are very helpful. The semester examinations are moderately difficult, but if you study every day, you should do well. The only downside is that the college is not very well-known, so job opportunities may be limited.

Average college as compared to other colleges at DU but good and knowledgeable faculty members.
Placements: Normally, placement is average. Only 10–15% of students were placed and the rest opted for higher studies. The highest package is below 8 LPA. 30% of students got internships. The main role offered in Economics Hons is that they teach you economics only in these 3 years, mainly in subjects used in economics and it will be helpful if you go for research or in any field .
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is average. Labs are neat and clean for science students because there is a new building for science students but in economics, there is no lab needed because classes are held in the old building. The environment in the library is also very peaceful and there are various books through which you can enhance your knowledge. Classrooms are good. The quality of food is also fine in mess and sports facilities are average.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and they contain good knowledge. Actually, they are masters of this subject and they have also studied it for years. Semester exams are averagely not so tough and not so easy but compared to the rest of the courses, they are a little bit tougher. 85% of students pass the exams.
Other: I chose economics because I want to do research in economics. The best thing about economics is that you will become almost an expert in this subject. This is the benefit of the course. One thing I want to improve in this course is that theory should be less and numbers should be more. The campus crowd is average and at festivals, there is always a celebrity. And the surroundings are good. It is situated near a good society.

Overall, it is not that bad.
Placements: Placements are something, and we need to work on them. There is no guarantee that we are dependent upon the college. Because of workshops and all, internships are quite easy. In this generation, there is no longer a need to ask for internships. There are already a lot of resources available on the internet, and there we will get the desired role and stipend elaborately.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is really bad, and it works early. Classrooms are just like schools unless we are from the science department, because classrooms do look like college classrooms. The library in our college is really nice, and it is the best part of the college. There are cameras around the campus, but we do not know how many of them really function. The food is not that nice, especially in the canteen, so we should prefer the cafeteria, where at least it is clean. Medical facilities are something I am not aware of, but there is a medical and sports room on the campus.
Faculty: Faculty members are average. There are professors who are pros at their job, so we do not even need to ask. However, there are some professors in professors who will just ignore some chapters, and tell us that we all know these chapters. We will learn from seniors from society, especially the marketing society, which really prepares students to be industry-ready. Exams are quite hard, frankly speaking, but our grades definitely depend on the checkers, so our luck works.
Other: So what I heard from people is that Economics Hons is the best they teach in DBC, so I chose this course. It does not mean that they are best at teaching economics. The course is still nice, and it is not like our life is wasted. Professors will definitely help us, and behave nicely and listen to them.

Our college provides good and humble faculty members.
Placements: Around 19 students got placed in the previous placement drive. The highest salary package offered is 12 LPA and the lowest salary package is 2 LPA. Top recruiters are Birla Sun Life, Buyvedas, College Aftermath, and Wipro. Around 27 students got internships and live project opportunities and 10% of them were selected by different companies like House of Kristin, Plan Reality, Travclan, etc.
Infrastructure: Library is spacious and partially air-conditioned, with tons of books on several subjects. There are air-conditioned computer labs with Wi-Fi. Classrooms are spacious enough to accommodate 70 students. Food served in the canteen is hygienic, and cleanliness is maintained.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are helpful, experienced, and well-qualified. They conduct regular classes, complete the syllabus on time, and clear the doubts of the students. They guide students through their careers. Faculty members are humble.
Other: I chose this course because it is in high demand nowadays. Students can pursue higher studies in the same and gain a good career in management, finance, data science, etc. More practicals should be provided in our course. Events and fests are organised. Our campus is spread over a vast area.

Satisfied with faculty, placement can grow. Wonderful college.
Placements: The placement cell of the college is quite active. Hence placement opportunities are always at the window. Coming to the placement of Economics hons, the data is not very clear but around 20% took college placement. Top companies like D. E Shaw, GradHub, and Zomato offer placements.
Infrastructure: When it comes to course infrastructure, the college is well-equipped with it. Coming to hostel infrastructure, this college lacks a hostel facility at present. The college consists of a medical room, canteen and also a cafeteria. The campus is very green and is very vast.
Faculty: Faculty members are truly generous and highly qualified in their fields. The curriculum is very relevant and is truly helpful for future building. Exams, when it comes to economics hons. , is of moderate to hard level. Without clear concepts, it's very hard to score good grades.
