Moderate college having good library and faculty members.
Placements: My course is history, and there are very few placements for my course because it is a non-professional course, but I heard that the B.Com course placement is good in college, and there is a college placement cell in the college. The college placement cell provides better placement for the students. Also, many companies visited the college.
Infrastructure: The library is so good. There is a limited lab, but it is sufficient for a lab-based course. In the library, there is a Wi-Fi service. The canteen is good, and hygiene is also good, not that much, but good. Sport facilities are good. Classrooms are not good in the context of a modernized class.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, but a few are not very helpful. My course is helpful for my future career as I want to prepare for government services. If I talk about the difficulty level of the exam, it is moderate, sometimes hard.
Other: I chose this course because of my career, and I also have a keen interest in history. The best thing about my course is that it sharpens my thinking and mindset. Scholarship is provided, but not to every student.

The college you will never regret after taking admission.
Placements: Mainly there are average students who got nearly 600 marks out of 800 marks in the entrance exam of CUET who get the admission, and in my course the average placement of students is 2 LPA, where it is mainly based on our skills and knowledge, and the top recruiting companies are there in the academy.
Infrastructure: The best infrastructure for college you dream of for the college campus is fully connected with a Wi-Fi system and highly equipped labs of the science department. And classrooms are also better as we study properly in that there is one peaceful library in the college campus with an air conditioning system.
Faculty: The teachers whom we say are professors or assistant professors are all very supportive and friendly in the context of students. They are always ready to help you with your career problems or academic problems. The main relevance of the course is the career in which field you want to focus.
Other: I will love to talk about why I choose this course because I can relate this course to the other further studies that I will pursue in my career, and it can help in the direction of civil services.

University of Delhi and its era.
Placements: This year, 40% of the total students were placed in my course. Not sure about placement packages, but as far as I have searched, the packages range from 6 lakh to 20 lakh per annum. Our course offers many roles, like one can go into politics, be a civil servant, or be an archaeologist.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is a little bit old, as almost all the colleges of the University of Delhi are made in the late 90s. But it gets comfortable within some time. Some things need to be upgraded, like furniture, air conditioners in classrooms, water pumps, etc. Libraries are fully air-conditioned and have free Wi-Fi. Our college doesn't offer any hostel facilities for students.
Faculty: Teachers are very well qualified, have great knowledge of their course, and have great experience too. Courses like history ( Hons.) are very important for students because with these courses, only students get to know about their history, their past, and their ancestors. Exams are a bit different because we have to write 500-600 words’ answers, but it gets into practice.

My diaries with the University of Delhi.
Placements: This year, almost 150-200 students were admitted to my course. The average package offered in our college is between 10-15 lakhs. On average, 80% of students get placements from our course in large companies like Tata Steel, Adani, Reliance, etc. Roles offered in our course can be in teaching, research, philosophy, or civil services.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is a little bit old, as all the buildings of the University of Delhi are from the 19th century, but it doesn't create much of a problem for students in winters and moderate temperatures. It becomes problematic in the summer, as there is no AC in classrooms, and Delhi gets very hot during this season, making it difficult for students to sit in classes.
Faculty: The faculty of our course is very helpful, responsive towards students, and active in college work. In our course, we take six exams in three years, and we have to qualify for all exams for graduation. The syllabus gets difficult for students at first, but as they start reading, they begin to enjoy it.
Other: I think everyone should study history and our past to understand how everything is made and how human evolution has progressed from apes to Homo sapiens.

The placements are not very satisfactory.
Placements: B.A. owners history is a theory course, so there is no 100% placement here in this course. Only 20 to 30% of students are placed in the core domain field of history, like historians or researchers. Apart from this, companies like Leveraged Edu and Udemy hire from here. The average package is nearly 4 LPA.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is decent here, like all the facilities are available. We have a huge playground, and volleyball courts and basketball courts are also there. JLN is the nearest metro station. And Sundar Nursery is also within walking distance. For food options, we have a canteen with limited options, but nearby areas are Lodhi Colony, so that is nice.
Faculty: The teachers are pretty well here in terms of knowledge and understanding. Some of them are very interactive and helpful, but some are not even interested in teaching. For semester exams, they are moderately tough. If one studies well, they will be able to pass.

    Yes, the college is good and the teachers are also good. You can pursue History Hons from here because the college is good. Only thing is that infrastructure is not so nice.
