Everything you need to know about KNC.
Placements: I am just entering my second year, so I don’t have much idea about placements, but from what I know, top companies visit our college for recruitment. Our placement cell offers various internships in different fields. There's something for everyone.
Infrastructure: We don’t have a hostel, but our library has three floors with Wi-Fi on each floor. They provide great access to the internet when studying. The classrooms vary in capacity depending on the class and the number of students. There is Nescafé, everyone’s favorite, and the canteen food quality and taste are great. Medical facilities are also excellent. The campus has huge grounds for different purposes, including our famous Chaupal.
Faculty: Faculty is great, knowledgeable, and always helpful in case of doubts. In my personal experience, teachers take their jobs seriously. The curriculum is easy to understand, relevant to the subject, and focused on practicality rather than just theory in necessary subjects. Exams aren’t difficult if you prepare well and pay attention in class.

I'm dissatisfied because of the small infrastructure but the faculty is great.
Placements: 50%-60% of students usually got placed. The highest package offered is 24 LPA and the average is usually 5 LPA-6 LPA. Recruiting companies like Deloitte, DE Shaw, Zomato, Lenskart, and many others. In my course, it depends on the skills of students if they get any internships, usually, B.A. students don't get any internships but the university offers some in-campus internships.
Infrastructure: Our college doesn't offer any hostel facilities but we have a great library which I'd digitalize. If I talk about the canteen it's average but very affordable the highest food price only goes up to Rs. 70. They provide every variety and my favorite is their chain of samosas I come to every morning early just for that I get them hot.
Faculty: Teachers are friendly and helpful in my faculty. They are highly knowledgeable and qualified. Course curriculum is relevant as a history student you want to go in research career options. Exams are easy and most of the students pass.

I am satisfied with the faculty members.
Placements: There is no guarantee of getting placed, but they organise field trips which help in getting more on-ground reports from newspapers. Field trips are useful for making connections. We visited the Times of India industry and camera museum. We also attended media conclaves which helped in making good connections. It also visited the Doordarshan office.
Infrastructure: There is no hostel. The infrastructure is not that bad. It does not have a green room. Wi-Fi facility is available in the whole college. Only one camera is there for 140 students of journalism which makes it difficult to have practical knowledge. There is no fault of the faculty members because college management is not providing full infrastructure and rooms to teachers so that they can teach students with practice skill sets.
Faculty: Teachers are the best, and one of the best journalisms. They are very well experienced. The course curriculum is relevant. The semester exam's difficulty level is not much. It is easy to score marks. The course curriculum makes students ready for the job because teachers teach so well that we don't feel that we are not getting any practical knowledge.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to become a journalist. One thing I wish to improve in this course is the practical knowledge about the concept, which is not possible due to the lack of infrastructure.

Had great college life here at KNC it became like a home and I had a lot of fun.
Placements: There is no placement guaranteed you have to find your own pace but exposure to field trips is on another level. Try to make your contacts with seniors but don't rely on them. Its a girls college, in B.Com and other field more placement comes like EY.
Infrastructure: Library is good with AC facilities, Wi-Fi is available, and water cooler facilities are also there. You get access to reading materials, and e-library, and try to utilize as much as you can, classrooms are normal but journalism has its own separate building.
Faculty: Teachers here at KNC are very supportive, they do everything to benefit you, flexible in assignments and work projects, they want you to score as high as possible but you need to work hard for internals and written exams, the curriculum followed is the latest as per DU level. The exam level is quite easy.
Other: Fest is top-notch, crowd is diverse, and scholarship is provided to students.

The infrastructure of my college is not too good.
Placements: Last month, several companies from Delhi NCR, especially large MNCs in India, visited my college to offer placements and provide excellent packages, including 5 LPA, along with internships for first-year students. Half of the students in my course are expected to secure placements in top companies.
Infrastructure: There will be Wi-Fi and labs in my college but certain rooms of my college are not good and the AC in the classroom is also not present in my college. Medical facilities are also not available and the sports and games for the girls and girls are about good. All things are good except for some activities.

Kamala Nehru College, University of Delhi is the best.
Placements: Placement opportunities are generally strong after any course. At KMC, there are over 14 colleges offering internships and jobs. The type of treatment teachers give to students is helpful in the interview and there is approximately a 10 lacs package in the hons course. Like last year Lenskart and other companies came in KNC.
Infrastructure: Not too bad, but it's good. The labs and classrooms are well-maintained, and the library is easy to access to find books. KNC auditorium is quite large. I heard that KMC auditorium is the biggest in DU, and the grounds are also nice. There is new building construction underway.
Faculty: Teachers are incredibly helpful. They resolve problems quickly and are friendly. Semester exams are moderate not too hard and not too easy depending on students' preparation. For internal subjects, you don’t have to worry, they are very easy.
Other: Events and festivals are top-notch. Compared to other colleges, KNC's festivals are the best, and other activities are also excellent.
