The most polite representation of KMC.

Placements: Being a student of history, I have no hope or expectations from the placement cell of my college or any college of DU because ultimately this is history honors. If you actually want a corporate job right after a bachelor's will have to start working hard and get internships to build corporate or industrial skills.

Infrastructure: According to college authorities, college is fully equipped with Wi-Fi. But apparently the Wi-Fi has a mind of its own so it will only work when it wants to. The quality of canteen depends on the vendors which change from year to year. But as per the analytical studies by my previous seniors and by myself as well, it has been constantly regrading.

Faculty: I love my course without doubt because there is no other reason. I would pick History honors as such there is no employability. But otherwise, the professors are nice. Most professors are actually wonderful and really knowledgeable. Until you have bad luck, because in that case you will get the worst possible professor who knows nothing about their paper and then in that case, you will have to beg your seniors for notes or go to YouTube.

This is the most polite way I could articulate.

Placements: Being a history student, I have no hope from the placement cell or any person, only myself, in terms of an internship. Though without doubt, history is great but if you want to build real-life corporate or industrial skills. Try to find internships yourself, and try to supplement your education with the skills.

Infrastructure: Although the campus is Wi-Fi equipped. It has a brain of its own and will work only when it wants to. Quality of canteen changes from year to year, though, through the analytical study, we can see there has been a consistent decline. Medical facilities are available only if the nurse is there.

Faculty: The teaching quality largely depends on the specific professor assigned to the course. If you are fortunate, you will get a professor who is genuinely committed and takes the paper seriously. The learning experience can be excellent. Most of the faculty members in history department are well-qualified and knowledgeable in their respective areas. Many are also approachable and willing to help students beyond their assigned papers. However, there's always a possibility of not getting the professor you hope for, which can impact your academic experience.

Other: The cultural SOCS are good, apparently the nicest in the whole DU circuit (surprisingly no).

Why to choose Kirori Mal College for history course!

Placements: In this course, no such placement is offered. It gives you the opportunity to learn, which you can apply on your own. As I already told you, there is no such placement for a history course or any other course except the commerce program and other science programs. But

Infrastructure: The hostel facility is excellent and is available for boys. You get snacks and all meals of a very good quality. You can get vegetarian and nonvegetarian food here. Most important is the infrastructure of the hostel. The hostel is well equipped with all facilities like sports, mess, canteen, etc.

Faculty: Yes, the teachers here are one of the best, especially in the 2 and 3 years. You get to learn more as their teaching style is unique and you relate to them. The course is according to the curriculum set in NEP 2020 by the du. The semester exam is not difficult as you know what questions will be coming by assessing the PYQ and with teacher guidance. Pass percentage is 33 percent.

A decent exposure to the campus life.

Placements: No such placements were entertained or offered by the college to the students enrolled in our course. In fact, there is a minimal chance for humanities students to get recruited by a company. However, those students who have experience and exposure through past internships have a decent chance of getting placed.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is above average overall. The classrooms, especially the department room, are not well maintained. Wi-Fi is only accessible in certain areas. Though science labs are quite profound and well maintained,. The food in the canteen is average and the only thing you would want to eat would be samosas. Infrastructure for sports is good with availability of boxing bring, volleyball and basketball courts, cricket and football fields, badminton court etc.

Faculty: The faculty for the course is well qualified and knowledgeable. Apart from some professor, most of the teachers are helpful and generous. Semester exams are quite easy and don't need rigorous preparation. Nearly 95% of the students can clearly pass these exams.

The college has a great scope.

Placements: Generally, in my course, the placements are based on the skills that you have. There are various startups that recruit, along with some established organizations like Speaking Archeologically and others. Students are less driven for placements as they either prefer to go for a master's or prepare for civil service.

Infrastructure: The facilities and infrastructure are worth it. It is value for money. The college is a bit compact but it is vibrant. Every corner will have some thing or another going on. There are AC rooms that are smaller in number but can be occupied. The quality of the food is also nice and it is cheaply available in the canteen.

Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and experienced but it also depends on the student how much they can afford. There is a library that has books and printouts. The exams are quite unpredictable as they go out of the college for correction. The curriculum is relevant.

Other: The campus life is great and there are numerous societies that conduct their fests throughout the year.

It has better hostel facilities than all other DU college hostels.

Placements: The history course is not meant for placement, although students pursue various internships, e.g., national museum internships, during their graduation period. Only a small fraction of students get internships; most students pursue higher studies in history itself.

Infrastructure: The history department had good faculties, and the department also had a library, which is poorly managed. Their are no such labs for history courses. The history has overall 7 seats in hostels from all years. The hostel is the best place for students, especially those who come from distant places. The hostel food is the best among all the other college hostels. The hostel also provides various facilities of sports, games, gyms, etc. But 7 CGPA is mandatory to maintain hostel in all years; otherwise, they will expel the student.

Faculty: The overall faculty is good, and a few teachers are very industrious in their work. The course pattern is designed to be similar to the UPSC curriculum; those who want to prepare for UPSC will surely get help from the syllabus. Although the students will not be industry-ready. Exams are held on a semester basis, and maintaining a CGPA of 7 or higher is required.

Other: I am always interested in reading history tables and I am always curious about historical events. And I am interested in knowing about any place history. I chose history to attend to the same point of interest in excellence. Paper writing could be a sphere in the department that could be improved. And our department organized many events annually, among them academic events.

I am very satisfied with this college.

Placements: There were no placements in this college. Many students opted for exams like UPSC so they were not interested in placements. The average salary package offered ranges between 3 LPA - 4 LPA.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, a library, a gym, and a playground were available. Separate hostels were available for both boys and girls. There was a restroom in this college.

Faculty: It was the best college on the north campus. Faculty members were very good. They conduct separate classes for both Hindi and English medium students. Teachers were very good.

Other: Our campus life was very good.

It is one of the best north campus colleges that fits into the 2022 and is top 10th NIRF college.

Placements: For history honors, there are no direct placements for students. For any placements or internships, students must have skills that companies would require. However, companies are hiring mass media and social management so history honors it creates a sense of information holder to any subject.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi does not work properly, and classrooms require certain maintenance. Students do not have a proper library with air-conditioners. This college has the best boys' hostel facility along with a good canteen. The sports ground needs maintenance.

Faculty: Teachers are good, and they make students understand the topics clearly. Our course curriculum is not sufficient due to the lack of days to prepare a vast topic, and the teaching quality is average.

Other: The best thing about this course is that it would enrich students' in-depth knowledge. But in our course rather than getting a true side of history, students are stuck between the marxist and nationalist debates which are important but they neglect the basic view of history.
