Kirori Mal College is the best for science.

Placements: Zoology is a very science oriented subject, 2-4 students got placed from Zoology itself. More than 30% of students got placed from science, particularly from statistics and computer sciences. For internships, more than 70% of students got paid internships. Top roles include project managers, executive, teaching roles, etc.

Infrastructure: The Zoology department is one of the finest in the college with well-facilitated classrooms, highly advanced labs, and a spacious library with a reading room. Hostel facility is available only for boys and the ambiance is good. Kirori Mal College is one of the finest and most active colleges in terms of societies and extracurricular activities. NCC, NSS, sports cell, and many more are the most active societies working for their goals at their best.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful in every aspect be it studies, co-curriculum, and any emotional support as well. Semesters are not very tough almost 90% of students pass. Course curriculum followed is similar in whole university but apart from that KMC provides very interesting courses in SEC for skill enhancing like aquaculture, fish culture, and pearl culture in lab and gives you hands on experience which makes students ready for industries as well.

Other: I chose this course due to my interest. KMC is the best choice for me mainly for sciences because professors motivate and cater to students with the utmost resources and push them for academic excellence along with wider research motivation.

Decent north campus college.

Placements: States depth bags the maximum placements, followed by economics and others. Other science courses provide decent placement; mostly, the crowd goes for entrance exams and PG courses, and placements are a scarce thing for sure. Good for UG courses, I would say.

Infrastructure: The hostel is the best, and college infrastructure is under development. A new auditorium and college renovation are in process. The hostel is the highlight, with a decent price, good accommodation, hygienic food, a flexible mess menu, and supportive staff.

Faculty: Average faculty with some great exceptions. Mostly, you have to study on your own, and the college gradually becomes just a means of get-together. Some professors teach exceptionally well, while others just teach average. Labs are decent, and lab staff is highly skilled.

Other: Fests are decent. Don't expect much from the infrastructure and placement aspects. A decent college with a nominal fee.

Genuine review of my college .

Placements: Kirorimal college is one of the prestigious college of Delhi University. The course I am pursuing right now have currently more than more than 40%. The highest package received by an individual was around 12-16 LPA. The lowest offered was just around 4-5 LPA. The Lupin corporation and the Wipro.

Infrastructure: The facilities are absolutely great and the infrastructure is pretty good. Yes, labs, classrooms are well furnished including air conditions and Wi-Fi availability. The libraries of our college is the best part provided with all the facilities. Canteens are great but the hostel are only for boys. No girls hostel is there in our college.

Faculty: Teachers, professors and lab staffs are highly educated and very interactive, their teaching methods really helps us to understand the topic more thoroughly. I really find my curriculum relatable not only this to make teaching more fun professors use to arrange field trips to understand our topics more practically.

Other: Due to the interest in the courses of Zoology and choose this course to pursue. I found the best things about my course is that teachers not only restrict ourselves to only upto the theoretical concepts but also allow any student to also participate in extra curricular activities. The fests of north campus are extremely fun and exciting and also connect the students through mela, fests etc.

Dissatisfied by infrastructure but blessed by facilities in libraries, gyms, ground, and classes.

Placements: As it is a college of north campus, obviously various companies approach here much more than south campus. But in courses like Zoology and Botany, placement rates are very low, not only in Kirorimal but even in Hindu and Hansraj too. But you can go for research, and various companies related to research on organisms hire us on internships. Average placement package is approx. 6-7 lakh per annum.

Infrastructure: Our canteen has almost everything that a canteen must have. Better and healthier items are also there; egg omelets, shakes, and ice cream are available too. Libraries have ACs with vast space to study and have Wi-Fi as well and are open from 8am to 8pm.

Faculty: Our course teachers actually take class regularly; they are really very qualified and experienced too. Actually talking about semester exams, they are not that tough; if you just pay a little bit of attention in class or start preparing for it 15 days before exams, it will definitely let you score 8+ cgpa. Pass percentage in my batch is almost 95 percent.

Other: I chose this course because I am an upsc aspirant and want zoology as my optional subject in my upsc exam. To improve my course, I'll reduce the written work and shift to print it rather than just write it. Every department, including us, have a farewell, annual fest, and every fun thing that we need.

Delhi University’s North campus’ dream college.

Placements: I am currently a first year’s student. I know that we have a placements cell in the college but for Science streams having PCB background, getting a placement right after bachelors is very tough. Also, the placement packages offered are very less being around 2-3 LPA which too are offered to one or two students from a batch of 65 students. The placements opportunities after a B.Sc. degree in our college are very less. Top role offered in our branch is that of a zoologist.

Infrastructure: We have proper facilities available that any good college should have. The building of the college is very old but it has a vintage vibe to it which most of the students like. The labs are well maintained having proper equipments. The classrooms are mostly digital with projectors and fans. ACs are limited to some rooms in the college only, like the girls common room, auditorium, etc. I like the overall vibe of the college and trust me you will love it too. We don't have a college hostel available for girls, so I don't know anything about the hostel part.

Faculty: I really like the faculty we have here in our college. They are really helpful even with work that has nothing to do with studies. They guide us regarding our future career options which we can pursue after our Bachelor's. Most of them are very humble and grounded to help the students anytime. They give their hundred percent to teach new topics in the class. When I didn't understand a concept, I asked them to explain it again and they were more than happy to do so.

Other: The seniors are very helpful in this college. You won't find any cases of ragging anywhere in the campus. Coming to the course, I am doing B.Sc. in Zoology. I was always interested in teaching and I particularly loved Biology during my higher secondary school years that's why I decided that CUET will be the best option available for me. You will love the crowd of the college. You will find many students coming from different parts of the country. I have friends from Kashmir, Assam and Hyderabad. I got to learn a lot about our nation after interacting with them, it’s a great learning experience to know that people with different views exist in our country together.

If you are left with nothing then choose Zoology.

Placements: To be very honest, I don't think there is anything like placement in Zoology. However, when you are pursuing your Masters, you will get a fellowship to pursue your Masters from top foreign universities. In addition, you are offered a stipend of something around 25k to 30k. After completing Ph.D., either you can become a lecturer or a researcher in any animal/human behavior specialties.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities offered by my college for my course are great. There are three labs for Zoology, fully equipped with AC. Wi-Fi is there but not in good condition. There is a common library for all the students of the college. Being honest, the hostel of KMC is one of the best among all the colleges of Delhi University in terms of infrastructure, food, facilities & everything. There is a separate hostel canteen where you can get cheap and affordable food, apart from the hostel mess which also serves the best food. Indoor sports facilities like chess, TT, badminton court, everything is there.

Faculty: The professors teaching us are highly qualified and knowledgeable. Some of them graduated from Delhi University itself, so they know everything about students' likes and dislikes. They are very helpful, though some of them seem rude. I think the course curriculum brought by NEP is relevant, apart from lots of assignments, projects, and files with which Zoology students are covered. The semester exams are held every 4 to 5 months. There are a total of 8 semesters (4 years) due to NEP. The exams are at an easy to moderate level. If you come to class regularly and attend all the lectures, you can easily pass the exam. The pass percentage is not that high. In Zoology, you have two exams: one practical exam and one theory exam, and you have to pass both exams. The minimum pass marks for practical are 40+ out of 80, and for theory, it is 33 out of 60.

Other: I am from Zoology Hons (2nd year). The total strength of my batch is about 50. I chose this course because, being from a Biology background, I wasn't left with any option other than pursuing my graduation from a top university and then preparing myself for either government exams like SSC CGL, UPSC CDS, or CAT. And why Zoology? Because I wasn't selected for NEET, so after 2 drops, I thought it better not to waste my time. One thing that I would like to improve about my course is that, apart from lots of assignments and practical files, students might be involved in some research work. There are a lot of events and fests regularly occurring in the college, apart from your respective department. In a nutshell, you will enjoy a lot apart from studies. The campus is located in North Campus, which is lush green with trees. One of the best things I like about my college surroundings is its connectivity with the metro and nearby markets.

Really good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: Students actually don't get placed after this course. They have to crack competitive exams like NET JRF, and then they pursue their postgrad. And then they do Ph.D. as per their interests. But most of our seniors gave comp exams like UPSC CAT, etc. And they achieved all India rank under 1k. Now talking about the internships. One of our senior worked as an intern (product analyst) at Mother Dairy. So basically, there are many options after graduation but don't expect placements just after your graduation.

Infrastructure: The Science Department has the best infrastructure comparatively. We have the best labs, lab equipment, classrooms, etc. From test tubes, microscopes, pipettes to chemicals, all are the best. Moving on to the hostel. KMC includes only boys' hostel. There is no girls' hostel. But the boys' hostel is the best among all the North campus hostels. They provide proper breakfast, lunch, dinner with both veg and non-veg options, and the hostel fee is also very much affordable. The hostel also has its own canteen. In front of the hostel, we have a volleyball court, badminton court, basketball court, and gym.

Faculty: All teachers are well-qualified with many years of teaching experience from well-known universities in India as well as foreign universities. The course curriculum is absolutely relevant; it takes the students from easy to medium to high-level topics like Human Physiology to genetics & microbiology. TBH sem exams are not very tough. I'll suggest you study from the beginning if you're not preparing for any competitive exams. But we all know no one does that. You can easily get an 8 CGPA by only studying one day before.

Other: KMC has a dance society named ' Sensation ' and a music society. Events in KMC are not that appreciable.

KMC is not just hype. It's a very good college.

Placements: I guess the average package after graduation with a Zoology Hons is about INR 30–40k. In different webinars, we have been informed about start-ups like dairy farming, beekeeping, and several other interesting areas. You can definitely pursue a career in research as well, or you can go into teaching; that too is a good option.

Infrastructure: The Zoology department has specially good and well-equipped labs, all the required instruments, chemicals, space, and well-ventilated labs for practicals are there in the lab and are air-conditioned. All the lecture halls also have enough space; they are huge, well ventilated, have projectors, and are air conditioned.

Faculty: Teachers are supportive, and you will also learn a lot from them. The course is very interesting in itself, but you have to give it your time, especially during exam times because there are practical exams too. Students who are interested in studying more about animals and their physiology should definitely pursue this course.

Other: The campus crowd is amazing; you will get to meet people from all corners of the nation as well as the world. And I believe these new experiences with new people will definitely make you learn a lot in life. As per my information, colleges do provide scholarships to students from economically weaker backgrounds. Different departments and societies conduct various events and fest throughout the year. The Zoological Society of KMC, BIOCENOSE, is also an active society that conducts various webinars and events.
