Our college has good teachers.
Placements: The college doesn't provide placements however during college days we went to various field visits which were very informative. Teachers also provided us internship opportunities. In the department of human development and childhood studies, there is a preschool "Aarambh" where students can do internships. Other than this our batchmates also did internship in mobile creches.
Infrastructure: The college provided us with Wi-Fi but many times we face network issues as the Wi-Fi connection is poor and connectivity is good only in certain areas. In-home science hons we have various labs for different subjects including food lab, microbiology lab, botany lab, human development lab, textile lab, physics and chemistry lab, etc. There are a variety of lab instruments and they are in good working conditions. The library also provides a variety of books however seating space is limited. Coming to the canteen food, prices are very affordable. Lastly, there is a basketball court and a sports society.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and have deep knowledge. The course offers a variety of career options in fields like child development, textile, food and nutrition, communication, extension, and resource management. Semester exam are of moderate level.
Other: I chose this course because it offers a wide variety of career options. It's a growing sector and all the subjects are really interesting. The fest takes place every year where we get to enjoy a lot. The college is situated in hauz khas where there are many places for students to explore and enjoy college life with friends.

I'm satisfied because of teaching techniques. It's really good facilities, infrastructure etc.
Placements: I think around 30% of students in my course (Bs. C (Hons) Home Science) got internships. The highest salary offered was Rs. 30,000-Rs. 35,000 per month, and the lowest salary offered was Rs. 24,000-Rs. 22,000 per month. Top recruiting companies are Nestle, Amul, etc. I don't know exactly how many students got internships, but I think 25%-40% got them. Top role offered was nutritionist.
Infrastructure: We have Wi-Fi facility, but sometimes it is not working. Proper labs, classrooms, library, canteen, specifically computer lab are available so that we can easily do all assignments. Our college does not provide a hostel. I'm also not a hosteller, so I don't know.
Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful for exams. At the end, we get extra classes. Teaching quality is awesome. The knowledge provided to students is in an easy way to understand. Exams are not very difficult. Pass percentage is around 50%.
Other: I like Home Science since my school days, so I chose B.Sc. (Hons) in Home Science. I think there are more theory classes than practical. Events and fests are organized.

Dissatisfied with the faculty.
Placements: Max. 400 students were enrolled in the course; only 0.1% got placement through college, whereas most of the children found the internship and placement by themselves. Only small startup firms were there to recruit. They are providing basic knowledge of professional skills only, and still students are not getting valuable skills to get placement. Because basic is not enough, it needs to be brought to an intermediate or advanced level.
Infrastructure: The college is efficiently providing the Wi-Fi, labs, and classroom. Also, air and ventilation facilities are being improved. But the quality of the food in the canteen wasn't that good, and they are providing a limited menu of food. The canteen is not completely developed as the area is small. Class timings are very long, due to which we didn't get time to engage in sports and games.
Faculty: Only a few professors were knowledgeable and qualified in teaching. Most of them were not making great efforts to provide education. Also, the course curriculum wasn't relevant that much; it needs to be advanced. It doesn't make industry ready. The semester exams are intermediately tough. Pass percentage is the same for different colleges. At least 50% is required to pass.
Other: The reason for choosing this college and course was to not get selected in NEET. I wish I could invest my time in gaining some useful skills instead of wasting it in the college period. In the name of events, they provide interesting annual festivals only, whereas all other events are boring. General student scholarships are circulated among students only for reserved categories.

I am satisfied with courses and faculty members but not with placements at this college.
Placements: Placement opportunities are not provided for undergraduates. The placement cell is ineffective. You have to find opportunities.
Infrastructure: The overall infrastructure of our college is average. The canteen and labs are available but the library is small with a limited number of books. Sports and games facilities are not provided. The hostel is not available. Medical facilities are not up to the mark.
Faculty: The curriculum and faculty members are good. Our faculty members are cooperative and qualified in their respective fields. We have a lot of options in terms of PF subjects that won't make you feel that you are a home science student.
Other: If you are looking for a college with good placements then this is not for you.
