u201cStrong Academics, Room for Improvement Elsewhereu201d .
Placements: Placements at the college are decent but not exceptional. A few reputed companies do visit the campus mostly for roles in sales, marketing and customer support. Core job opportunities are limited especially for non-teach courses. The average package is moderate, and only a handful of students land high-paying offers. You? Ll likely need to rely on off-campus placements or internships if you're aiming for top-tier companies. The placement cell is active and tries to bring opportunities, but there? S still a lot of room for improvement in terms of company variety, job profiles, and industry exposure.
Infrastructure: I? M currently pursuing Sociology, and the course has been a great experience so far with a well-structured syllabus and supportive, knowledgeable faculty who make the subject engaging and thought-provoking The hostel facilities are okayish? Basic amenities are available, but cleanliness, food quality, and overall comfort could definitely be improved.
Faculty: I? M pursuing Sociology, and I? D rate the faculty and curriculum a full 5/5? The professors are supportive, and the syllabus is well-structured and thought-provoking. The infrastructure is great, with clean classrooms and a well-equipped library that creates a good learning environment. Placements are average (3/5)? Some companies visit for sales and marketing roles, but core and high-paying jobs are limited, so off-campus efforts are often needed. The hostel is okayish, with basic facilities but needs improvement in food and maintenance. Overall, the academic experience is excellent, with some room for improvement in placements and hostel life.
Other: When it comes to fests and campus life, it? S actually a lot of fun. The college hosts some vibrant events, cultural programs and fests that bring a refreshing energy to student life. It is great chance to enjoy, participate and take a break from academics.

Absolutely satisfied with the faculty and college.
Placements: Our course did not offer us any placement. Because it is a non-technical course. All one can do is go for either higher studies or give competitive exams. But it is a very scoring subject. So would be very helpful for civil servant examinations.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is great. It has all the facilities. Even lifts and plans are constructed for specially abled children. There is greenery in the whole college. It has a very big and beautiful library with all the new facilities. Classrooms are very spacious and airy. The girls hostel is very good. With proper security, and food quality is also very nice. There is also a medical room in the college where one can rest or take any medicine. There's a big ground for outdoor sports. And all the games are played and taught.
Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. They taught in depth and made us understand everything. One can ask the doubts several times. This course curriculum is very relevant. As it prepares the student to go for higher studies and do research projects or work in NGOs, MNCs, or Civil Service Exams. The level of exams was easy to moderate. The passing percentage is 40% of total marks.

Our college provides good facilities and infrastructure.
Placements: Many students from our course get paid internships and other jobs. Students do many research-oriented programs and get a stipend. Many students go for higher studies and go abroad. It is a NACC A+ college.
Infrastructure: Our college has a beautiful hostel which accommodates a few selected students who have great grades or have any kind of reservations. It provides every needed facility. The food served is great. Wi-Fi is great. Grounds are available in our college. Students can access food in the canteen.
Faculty: Teachers of our course are well-qualified, helpful, and knowledgeable. They are easy to approach. All of them are permanent teachers and the most stable. Semester exams are not difficult to pass as teachers take remedial classes if students want them before exams.
Other: I chose this course to attempt UPSC and want sociology as my optional. Our college is in old Rajinder Nagar, so it is very convenient to prepare for UPSC as this area is known to be the UPSC hub.

I am satisfied with the course.
Placements: Doing a course like honours in sociology doesn't make you eligible for placements right after the completion of your graduation. Some people who did various internships got jobs independently. Companies don't visit our campus for at least sociology Hons. There is a better scope after you do your master's.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Janki Devi Memorial College is worth seeing. It is so lush green and clean, beautifully maintained, and taken care of. The library is air-conditioned and full of light. Wi-Fi has some problems as it doesn't work in some parts of the college. Classrooms, especially the new ones, are awesome. Other facilities, like the canteen, medical facilities, and sports, are great.
Faculty: Teachers are good by nature. Prof. Vandana Madan and Prof. Rajyalaxmi are exceptionally approachable and intelligent. Some teachers do teach well, but the frequency of students and teachers does not match. The course is so contemporary and relevant. It makes you a totally different person. A big transformation in personality takes place. Exams are not that difficult if you do the previous year's question papers and attend 75% of the classes.
Other: This course gives you a new beginning in your life. A different perception of yourself will emerge after enrolling in this course.
