Our campus has much greenery.
Placements: Around 50% to 60% of students get internships but there are no placements in our course. The highest salary package offered in B.Com is 6 LPA and the lowest salary package in B.Com is 3 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Zomato, ICICI, and Meesho. Placement cell provides regular updates of internships.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are average in size but some departments have seminar halls with big sitting capacities. Every room has a sitting capacity of 40 people. The library is the best in the whole DU as it is a 3-storey library. Wi-Fi provided in our college doesn't work properly. Food is very cheap but a lot of food items are provided in the canteen and the food is very good.
Faculty: Faculty members in the history department are the best. Most of them are self-authored and write books in collaboration with different DU colleges. All of them are feminists and encourage gender studies. Exam level is tough but is impossible to score high.

Our college is a very good college.
Placements: A lot of companies source employers from our college, being a leading college for courses like English and Journalism tends to open up a lot of placement opportunities related to these two disciplines. In fact, a lot of well-paying internships (up to Rs.10000) open up for students specifically from these disciplines.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is average. Chaupal is legit and the best area in our college. The college could do with a new coat of paint. From what I've heard, the painting and maintenance would finish by the month of June. We also have a wonderful library that goes up to 3 floors (ground, first, and second).
Faculty: The teachers in our college are the best. We genuinely have the best faculty for all humanity streams. The professors are extremely helpful and a good library supplies necessary resources for acing any exam.
Other: We're the only college on the south campus that hosts a theatre fest.

It has a well-structured course with supportive faculty members and a balanced campus life.
Placements: About 60% of students get placed. The highest package is 10 LPA, and the average package is 5 LPA. The lowest package is 3 LPA. Some top recruiters are Deloitte, TCS, etc. About 50% of students get internships in companies such as EY, PwC, and startups. Roles commonly offered are analyst, consultant, and content strategist.
Infrastructure: The department has good Wi-Fi, clean classrooms, a useful library, and basic labs. There is no hostel facility, so students arrange their own accommodation. There is no large sports ground. We have access to basketball for outdoor sports and some indoor games. Medical help is available on campus. The canteen offers decent food options.
Faculty: Teachers in my department are really dedicated, helpful, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good and helps us understand the subject deeply. The course curriculum is relevant and offers a good foundation, but could include more practical exposure. Semester exams are moderately difficult. The pass percentage is usually around 80-85%.
Other: I chose this course because of my interest in the subject and the reputation of the college. The best part is the supportive faculty members and well-structured syllabus. I wish there were more hands-on opportunities like workshops and industry tie-ups. Campus life is enjoyable with fests, active student societies, and good peer interaction. Connectivity and surroundings are student-friendly.

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.
