Great experience with supportive faculty, vibrant campus life, and value-for-money education.

Placements: In my B.A. (Hons.) Philosophy course (batch 2024–27). Placements are not as strong as in professional courses, but there are decent internship opportunities. Around 20–30% of students from my college receive internships through societies and the college placement cell. The highest package offered is around 4 LPA, while the average stays near 1.5–2 LPA. Companies like Teach for India, NGOs, content creation firms, and publishing houses offer roles like research intern, content writer, or assistant editor.

Infrastructure: Our college has well-maintained classrooms with projectors, clean washrooms, and free Wi-Fi. The library is well-stocked with philosophical texts and general reading material. There are labs for Science and EVS subjects. Though hostel facilities are not available for all, the canteen serves hygienic food at reasonable rates. Sports grounds and a small medical room are also available.

Faculty: Faculty members in the Philosophy department are highly qualified and very supportive. Most of them have PhDs and a strong academic background. The course content is intellectually enriching and relevant for those pursuing higher education or exams like UPSC or NET. Exams are moderately difficult, but the pass percentage is good if you study regularly. The curriculum is a mix of Indian and Western Philosophy, with ethics, logic, and critical thinking skills.

Janki is an underrated college.

Placements: Placement opportunities are mostly Commerce, Econ, Marketing, or English-oriented, ranging up to 4-5 LPA for undergraduates. Apart from others, companies such as Amazon and Flipkart have also come to our college. For research-oriented subjects, the Research Centre is rather proactive.

Infrastructure: Facilities such as fully functional AC computer labs, a research room, an e-resource room, a recording studio, and a mezzanine floor in the library are present. Smart boards, tactile flooring, and Braille descriptions on the lift and such are made available for PWD students. A huge football ground, other sports facilities including an Open-air Gym, and NCC equipment ground are present.

Faculty: All teachers are qualified and polite to approach. The teachers are open to doubts and, apart from class notes, provide extra study material from online sources as well. The pass percentage is almost 100% in my department; this is not according to official records, it's my personal assumption.

Other: The college offers umpteen numbers of extracurricular activities with 44 societies. Even as an off-campus college, personality development is remarkable if only one wishes to take part. Scholarships and fee assistance are provided.

A college with not so good college life.

Placements: A maximum of 30 students got placed from my course. The average package is 3 LPA. Snapdeal and Nyka are the top recruiters. 65% students enrolled in several internships like amazon, snapdeal, Myntra, etc.

Infrastructure: Infra is not wow but yes it can be accessed easily. The library is good but labs and classrooms are not good. Hostel of JDMC, that is, Krishna hostel is one of the best hostels in DU. Canteen's food is the worst. Sports and games are okay.

Faculty: Some teachers are quite helpful while some are quite arrogant. The quality of teaching could have been better. They all live in some wonderland, and they don't prepare us for future. Just events and fests are organised. Exams are easy.

Other: I have been into philosophy since I was 16, that's why I chose this course. It has practical use in different fields. Events are good but campus life is not so happening.

Placements: Percentage Should be 60% or more for the placements. We didn't get any package offerings. We can attend seminars, they are mostly about career options.

Medical rooms are available and girls common room too. Janki devi memorial college is such a beautiful campus with beautiful lawns and sports courts.

It is one of the best colleges in terms of campus.

Placements: The placement drives were organised. However, due to the course, I got selected, and I got very rare opportunities. However, my friends from other courses got good placements. As far as internships are concerned, students have to get on their own.

Infrastructure: Classrooms were well ventilated. The library was huge, and students could easily get whatever they were looking for. The computer labs were functional, but the time limitation was a drawback that could be seen. The campus was lush green. The only one that I observed during my tenure was the toilets, which were not clean. The college has built hostel also, so the hostel facility is available for students who pursue their study from this college.

Faculty: Faculty members were good and really helpful. Whenever we face any problem, they take care of it at any time. Whenever we felt that there is a need for a replacement for the teacher, the authority was being considerate towards it. Teachers were qualified.

Other: Various activities are conducted. There are various societies which are active across other universities and colleges, and students can participate in various events.

I had a good experience in our college.

Placements: Our college has a placement cell which provides good opportunities to the students to coordinate with the cell and get all the updates and chances of direct placements. Teachers are equally helpful in guiding the students regarding placements. Though the college is affiliated to Delhi University and though there is a placement cell providing placement opportunity to students, you can't expect too good placements.

Infrastructure: I personally loved the infrastructure of our college. The campus has a lot of greenery. The building is beautiful. The canteen is spacious. Classrooms are very comfortable. The main and the most beautiful part of the infrastructure is the hostel area on the campus.

Faculty: Our college has one of the best faculty members. Though I am not much aware of other departments, the faculty members in the philosophy department are very friendly. The principal of our college is also very helpful, frank and guides the ideas of students.
