Not exactly what I expected but manageable.
Placements: My college has a placement cell but it is not very active. Most of the students prefer to do a master directly after graduation. My college does not work on the placement cell that much. If you want to get an internship then you can apply on your own. Even our professor suggests that we use our summer break for internships.
Infrastructure: My college has two blocks namely A and B. Block A is the holder so it has canteen library, admin office and accounts office. Block B is newer so it has a conference room and more spacious labs. The classrooms are well ventilated and get more natural light. Our college does not have any hostel facilities available because of the residential area nearby but you can find many affordable PGs near Hauz Khas.
Faculty: The professors of my course are very knowledgeable and experienced. They know the topics very well, and they use PPTs to explain the difficult topics more clearly. They help us with the reference books notes and our doubts. Curriculum is relevant in the case we study. The modern technologies will eventually help us in the industrial area.
Other: I chose this course because it is very fascinating. Good food reacts inside our body and helps us to nourish and grow. I really like food Science the Science behind the food we eat. I really like the processing techniques that help us supply the food to different parts of the world. The best things about this course are that not only can you directly go into the industrial sector. You can also create your own product which is a super cool thing about food technology.

It is a mixed but generally positive review as it supports our future.
Placements: The highest percentage of students is 90%. The highest package is 2-3 LPA, and the lowest is 1 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Haldiram and Coca-Cola. 70-80% students get an internship through society contacts. Roles offered are Food Nutritionist and Food Technologist.
Infrastructure: Facilities are good but not very good. Classrooms are cleaned and have average infrastructure. There is no hostel here. The canteen is good and hygienic, but the prices are slightly high for students. For sports, college participation is good in inter-college competition.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and well-explanatory except for 2-3. It makes students ready for the industry, but we haven't visited any industry yet, and it ensures to offer that. The semester exams are not that tough if you study well, as teachers also support, and the pass percentage is around 91%.

Good academics here, but it lacks placement.
Placements: I mean, the academics are great in our college, but placement isn't, and very few get placed, that too with low LPA. There is a nice job, Mela or something, for placements, and points on ships you have to do on your own, and sometimes they don't even give you a recommendation letter.
Infrastructure: We don't have a hostel. Infrastructure is okay, but not much space. The college canteen is okay as it changes from semester to semester, and the faculty and infrastructure are okay, but there is not much to explore. You know, sometimes you need not only to be stuck in subjects and studies. You need something to explore, but there aren't many areas, playgrounds, or anything.
Faculty: Teachers are good, and attendance is mandatory. They maintain a good standard and are very knowledgeable, as well as having good behavior. This semester, exams are moderate or hard, not easy. The subject I am in or the course I am in is related to the industry.
Other: The fest was okay, as there isn't much space for a crowd, but still, it's enjoyable.

This college provides you an amazing comfort zone with good faculty.
Placements: We have a placement cell in our college which caters to all the placement needs. Top companies have visited our college and provided good placements, the entire cell is very cooperative and gives us immense support from the beginning of the cycle till the end.
Infrastructure: The college has decent infrastructure, it is pretty old but well settled. The college has good space for cultural activities and properly built labs for all the practical to be conducted. Such a space build confidence in the students to achieve best ways around.
Faculty: All the subjects have vast curriculum with detailed knowledge. The curriculum is designed in such a way that it keeps the students interests in studying. None of the subjects are boring and with the help of our faculty it becomes even easier to understand all the concepts.

Good experience because of fests and events.
Placements: I have heard that only 3 students got jobs after pursuing a B.Sc. hons in food technology. There are no college placements. Students are doing jobs and internships by their own referrals. Top roles offered are research analyst and content writer.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi works at a snail's pace and there are less number of theory rooms. The lab is good but has a lesser number of equipment than necessary. We don't have hostel services. The food is average in the canteen. Sports are only for name sake. There are only 7 sports options. The sports room in charge is very rude so people don't prefer going to her.
Faculty: Teachers are hardworking. Sometimes, they may seem rude but end up helping us in the long run only. The curriculum is good. The course is relevant, but it should have more industry knowledge. Semester exams are not very tough, but you need to study though. The last year's pass percentage was 91%, which is pretty high.
Other: I chose this course because it is something we never learned, and I am very eager to know more about food technology as a whole subject. More industry-based things should be taught I feel this. Events keep on happening in college which is a good thing. The campus crowd is better comparatively. Ragging or bullying is rarely seen. Scholarships are not awarded as much as they should be. The surrounding area is very beautiful.

    Hi, You are eligible to get admission in this university. But, cut off goes very high. But, I will suggest you to participate in the counselling. And, wait for the last round cut off. If not getting any colleges in last round, then go for private colleges. Best of luck.
