Good infrastructure and environment friendly.
Placements: There are 60 students in my course. It depends on oneself, they are involved in some internships such as Thirty40, Abilityex, Kalahut, etc. The highest salary is Rs 23.50 LPA while average salary is Rs 5.70 LPA, as much I got to know till now. Almost 20 to 25 students are doing internships currently.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is amazing. Our campus environment is very fresh and beautiful. The garden is managed perfectly and soothing. The quality of food is quite not good currently. But the previous one was amazing no one had any complaints. Medical facilities are good and 24/7 in service, sports, and games. The ground is always open and anyone can catch up with whatever, one wants to play cricket, basketball, etc. The quality of facility in hostel is good. Library is amazing.
Faculty: The teaching quality is very clear and good. One can understand very easily. They are qualified and knowledgeable. They are also very much helpful and informative. They want to make students ready for any such skills required. The pass percentage in my course is almost 90% so you can imagine the level of teaching and difficulties that we overcome during our semester exams in college.
Other: I chose history case because I want to explore more of it and want to drive myself in it. If there would be a digital system I suppose that would be great and would help us in understanding more better way. Events, fests, crowd, and campus surroundings are not bad. But just wished to have a canteen area a little bigger than usual. The fest seasons are so eye-catching and good.

A college with good infrastructure and very supportive teachers.
Placements: It is a theory-based course and does not provide any type of placement. This course is very helpful for students who are preparing for UPSC. It is a great course for students who love to study about India and other countries history. It is an interesting course.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our department is quite good but old, and we all are happy with it. The quality of the food provided in the canteen is good and pocket-friendly for all students. Our college provides students with free Wi-Fi which is very helpful.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and supportive. They guide students at every point. Teachers are highly qualified and very knowledgeable. Most of the teachers have a teaching experience of 10-15 years. They provide students with all notes and study materials required. I am in the first year, so I don't know about semester exams.
Other: When I was in school, history was my favorite subject, and I wanted to become an IAS officer, so I chose this course. Our college organises many events like Dandiya Night, etc. Diwali Mela is organised by the student union of our college.

Quality education and good campus.
Placements: The placements are decent for B.A. Hons. History. However, it is comparatively less than what other DU colleges have to offer, especially for the North campus. Here, the average package offered is somewhere around INR 4 LPA. The roles offered include research and edtech. The placement rate for our course is around 80%.
Infrastructure: Crafted with red sandstones, Maitreyi College exudes sophistication. It is well-equipped with all the modern amenities, like an auditorium, seminar hall, playground, spacious premises, a canteen with nice food and affordable prices. It also has a huge library.
Faculty: The teachers are indeed very helpful and supportive. Their friendly approach helps us a lot in understanding difficult concepts. The curriculum is very much related to the market and covers different dimensions of global history. The exam level is neither too difficult nor too easy.

I am satisfied with the college, faculty, and overall experience. No internships are provided.
Placements: Not many placements are given for History honours courses in Maitreyi College, University of Delhi. It is because the course is very versatile and not many job opportunities are available for freshers. Experience is needed in almost all the job opportunities that one can get via history honours.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is normal. Seats are not comfortable at all. The table is also not good. Classrooms can get very crowded when a lot of students come to class. Fans and lights also do not work. Many projectors also don't work in some classes.
Faculty: Faculty, teachers, and staff members are good at teaching their courses. The department teachers are well taught in their subjects, except for a few. They clear all doubts. They provide good lessons, but no practical knowledge is given. We will have to learn a few things on our own.
Other: I chose history honours because of my interest in the field of archaeology. Being in this department has opened new ventures for me.
