In love with the people here, an average infrastructure with the best staff in 2026.
Placements: I am in my first year right now and I have experienced only one internship fair to date as it's held once a year. There are lesser opportunities for the first years, however for the third year, we had good deals. Almost 65% of students (pursuing 3rd year) got internships. For placements, the highest package is 24 LPA and the average is 8 LPA. The top recruiters are Deloitte.
Infrastructure: We have an average infrastructure. Hostels are not there. The campus is small. As far as classes are concerned, they are not clean and dust-free. The windows are not in very food condition. Poor connectivity is another problem we face. Wi-Fi is not available in classrooms. We have a huge library where we have access to the Wi-Fi also. Library is well-maintained. We have a very good auditorium and also a new seminar room which was recently built, is air-conditioned and is aesthetic.
Faculty: Teachers for my course are very helpful. They are very particular about their classes and internal examinations. The teaching quality is very nice. I do find the course curriculum relevant as in statistics, we study about the applications of data. The semester exams are nor very tough if one has attended the lectures and heard carefully. The passing CGPA is 4.
Other: I chose this course because of my keen interest in economics and mathematics. The best thing about this course is its versatility. For the college, students and the crowd here is just too awesome. The crowd is so nice, it feels so safe inside the campus. College conducts famous fest- Ullas is too great. College has a huge ground and a lot of sports equipment. Students can anytime come and play.

Absolutely satisfied because of facilities, faculty, opportunities, placements, etc.
Placements: After clearing CUET, I enrolled in this course as well as in this college. After completing graduation, you will get opportunities for placements but it all depends on your skills. If your CGPA is above 8 and you have highly skilled knowledge, you can get placement opportunities.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very good classrooms are pretty nice and spacious. Eco-friendly environment is there. There is no hostel you have to live in PG or flats. The canteen is very nice and spacious for students; they feel friendly environment around themselves. Ground, cafeteria, etc.—many places are in the college.
Faculty: The all professors are too good. All the KNC staff are so nice and helpful. They have highly skilled knowledge. Economics Honors is the best course in DU and if you have this course, hard work opportunities will come to you . Hard work is the key to success. You can clear semester exams with passing marks.
Other: Economics Honors is the best course for anyone who wants to go in the field of economists and also in civil services. It will be very helpful. There are lots of events that take place and festivals also happen every year . If you join this college, you will enjoy all the festivals, events, campus surroundings, and activities.

Non-biased review of Kamla Nehru College.
Placements: Around 50-60% of students in my course are placed. The highest package is 12 LPA, the lowest package is 3 LPA, and the average package is 5-6 LPA offered in my course. The top recruiting companies are Lenskart, FNB, and Zomato. Around 80-90% of students get internships, which are paid and the stipend is around 12-15K. These companies are basically the small companies but growing companies, and the NGOs, you get paid.
Infrastructure: There are jammers installed near the college, so you have no access to Wi-Fi of your own, but in the library, there is Wi-Fi available. The infrastructure is really bad. The benches are broken and the medical facilities are also not very great. The food is average.
Faculty: The teachers are really great and they help you at any time and every time. The course curriculum is relevant and it makes the students get into practical and theoretical knowledge. Both the semester exams are really difficult, and it is very difficult to get good marks. The pass percentage is 60%.
Other: I chose this course because it has a high package, which is one of the best things about my course. You get a real and practical knowledge. One thing I would like to improve is that some exams should be really easy. The fest is nice, and the campus crowd is average.

Satisfied because of faculty, placements and facilities.
Placements: In this session of 2024, almost 40–45 percent of students were placed, in which 10–12 percent are those who didn't even participate in placement and rather took drop to prepare for competitive exams and almost 14–15 percent of them went for masters. The average package this year was 4 LPA, and the highest package went 6.40–7 LPA. Top recruiters for this course in KNC are Wipro, Zomato, Google, IBN7, and iACT Global. Almost 40–45 percent of students manage to get an internship in this course. Students get placed for roles like financial management, business journalism, data analytics, quantitative research, academics, etc.
Infrastructure: Kamala Nehru College is a very small area, and hence sometimes there is a shortage of classrooms. The library of our college is good but most of the fans don't work and even after complaining a lot, the college authorities are not talking about any steps. The library is the best place in our college to focus and use the internet because no network works in our college area so we entirely have to depend on college wifi, which is only accessible in the library.
Faculty: The economics department of our college has one of the best faculties; teachers are very experienced and knowledgeable, and the faculty and teaching quality are satisfactory. Yes, economics is basically a science subject that makes us think scientifically and practically. Also, the professors really teach well and make sure to engage us in practicality through assignments and explanations. Well, the toughness of exams depends on how you study; still, I won't say economics is an easy subject; it takes lots of handwork and guts to quality this exam with good marks. The passing percentage of our college in this subject is above 85 percent. I would rate the semester exams between average and moderate.
Other: I chose this course not only because of my interest in it but also because of the scope of this subject in Delhi university. The best thing about economics is it's an ever-demanding course since the world works on money and markets; also, economics opens doors to competitive exams, higher studies , corporate jobs and many more. Though I like my college, if I had to make improvements, I would install working fans in classes and library; I would make the campus bigger, but the college is already under construction and adding more building to our college. Our campus is surrounded with lots of trees, greenery and animals, which is the best part about our college; there's so much peace and good crowd. There are always events being conducted in our college by different departments and society. The college conducts a yearly fest in February; apart from that, other departments conduct their own fests, like NCC, etc. The college give many scholarships, like merit and national scholarships, scholarships for ward of ex-servicemen, scholarships for those affected in riots and one for Hindu people who don't speak Hindi.

Great faculty, but average at extracurricular activities.
Placements: Students pursuing Economics Hons do get good chances of placements, but not every year, the number keeps changing, and also the criteria for getting selected. Even we are studying economics, there are opportunities only in sales or consulting. Hardly 5%-10% of students got placed. Top recruiting company is American Express.
Infrastructure: Since there are jammers in Gargi, we at KNC don't get very good network connectivity despite the number of Wi-Fi access points being there. In classrooms, many of the fans do not work properly, and the boards and desks are not cleaned time to time. There is dust everywhere, and we as students, clean it by ourselves. Also, even if it is a girls' college, the washrooms are never clean, and we are often scolded by the cleaning staff to not enter the washrooms either just after or just before the break because if everyone uses it, they will get dirty sooner.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, and we do have doubt classes, except for the regular classes, and the syllabus just gets completed on time. There is very little time left for revision if you go at the professor's pace, also like in sem 2 in our EVS (AEC paper), our teachers didn't even discuss a single topic, and we were working for the betterment of their website the whole semester.
Other: One should only choose economics if they are eager and want to learn and excel in this subject, since this requires a lot of study, and one cannot study it one day before the exam, and also expect good grades. The events are good, our annual fest is great, though for extra-curricular activities, it depends on one society to another, not all are inactive and active at the same time.

    No, maths is not compulsory rather it's an optional subject which you can take up for your own benefit or desire. Economics (Hons) doesn't require maths. All the best.
