I am quite satisfied as I have learned a lot of things during my time here.

Placements: There are no such good companies for placements. Mostly, NGO comes for unpaid volunteering. If good companies come it is difficult to crack their interviews if we aren't fully prepared. We have a placement cell also called Eminence. It tries its best to bring good organisations.

Infrastructure: We don't have any hostels. The infrastructure is also very small. It is like 2 blocks only, but it is sufficient according to the number of students. Being a girls' college, we don't need much space to let you know how to roam around, etc. Because we have such a busy timetable for the whole day.

Faculty: Teachers are very knowledgeable and helpful. The course curriculum is very vast, as it contains various interesting subjects. The course curriculum is relevant. I guess it does make students ready for vast fields such as HR, nutritionist, Journalism, B.El.Ed, etc. Semester exams are not that hard either.

Other: I chose this course because it gives me a lot of career choices. I guess subject choices should be given to students. It organises our cultural fest named Feria, and other small fests also.

It has a good learning experience.

Placements: The placement cell in the Institute of Home Economics is active but limited in terms of opportunities. Only a small percentage of students get placed, mostly in education, NGOs, or internships. Many students prefer higher studies or competitive exams. The college focuses more on skill development than direct job placements.

Infrastructure: The college infrastructure is average. Classrooms are decent, and labs have basic equipment. Wi-Fi is slow and often unreliable. Hostel facilities are manageable, but the quality of the mess food needs improvement. Sports facilities and medical help are limited.

Faculty: Faculty members are knowledgeable and supportive. The teaching methods should be more interactive and easy. The course curriculum is fairly relevant but needs updating for better industry alignment. Exams are moderately tough, and the average pass rate is decent.

Other: I chose this course because of my interest in the field and the practical exposure it provides. The best part is the supportive faculty and hands-on learning. I wish campus events and extracurricular activities were more frequent. The campus crowd is friendly and diverse.

A college with good placements and faculty. Total junk in good and cleanliness.

Placements: The college offers a wide range of internships and placements. They even have a special society named Eminence, which is the placement community. The placement community people are helpful. We get a lot of opportunities to enhance ourselves.

Infrastructure: There is some cleanliness problem. The library is very old and dusty. Wi-Fi does not work sometimes. Our classrooms are always disorganized with dirty chairs. The canteen is very disorganized. The mess and its food are not hygienic.

Faculty: The course curriculum is certainly satisfying. There is a lot of scope and different things all together to explore and learn. Teachers are highly supportive and knowledgeable. The exam pattern is easy to follow and understandable.

Other: Campus life is vibrant with fun events and festivals. The crowd of students is diverse and engaging. The campus is well-connected. There are plenty of extracurricular activities to explore. Scholarships help ease financial concerns, making the overall experience more rewarding.

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.

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.

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.
