From all perspectives, my college is the best.
Placements: Basically, my college organizes a job fair every year. With the help of the training placement cell, 20+ companies attend and select students based on specific criteria. They needed this, so my college is average in this regard. Very few students from my course apply because it's primarily focused on Political Science Honors.
Infrastructure: Our college's infrastructure is much better than any other college at Delhi University or any private college, according to students. We offer better water facilities, Wi-Fi, a library, classrooms, smart classes, and air-conditioned rooms in a few classrooms. However, the hostel is only for girls, which is a downside for our college. Otherwise, it’s good.
Faculty: The teaching quality at our college is excellent; the teachers are knowledgeable and well-qualified. They have a good understanding of their subjects and are very helpful. Additionally, students also take an interest in the subjects. So, all these factors make our college good.
Other: I chose this course because my background is in humanities, and I am also interested in this field. That's why I prefer this course.

I will recommend this college to all.
Placements: Placement of my college is not so good in my course as it does not get much opportunity for placement and internship, not even in my course. Mostly B.Com and BBE courses got good opportunities for internship and placement. According to me, the placement cell of our college should be improved.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure of my college is very good. We have a two-story library facility in our college, and we have the best auditorium among Delhi University. We have hostel facilities in our college only for girls. We have a free Wi-Fi facility available on our college campus and a good cafeteria.
Faculty: We have good faculty in our college who are very helpful for online material. They are very supportive, and the teachers are very good and regular, and highly qualified. Exams are conducted semester-wise. Students have to study throughout the year to score good marks. Curriculum activities are also good.
