One of my best memories is in Delhi.

Placements: In Maitreyi College, Horizon, the placement cell of my college, was doing so well and took up various opportunities for all the students looking for internships and placements. But, unfortunately for my course, Political Science, there are not many options or choices in the field of the private sector.

Infrastructure: Overall, the infrastructure of my college was good, but only for the arts section it was horrible at times, like in summers when we had our classes on the top floor with no cooler or AC. The canteen of our college was so good, and if the canteen workers were not good or misbehaving with anyone or charging extra cost, the tender would be given to another one.

Faculty: Our course curriculum was fantastic as I'm interested in this subject. The things we learned were so good. After gaining a basic understanding, you'll also start taking an interest in political matters, and once you reach that stage, exams will be so much easier for you.

Other: I loved the subject of Political Science because there are a lot of things to learn and explore, including real-life concepts and ideas. It broadens our perspective through global politics and international relations, with various subjects helping us understand why the world is the way it is.

Student's perspective on Maitreyi College.

Placements: I am from the B.A. (Hons.) in Political Science course. In this course, we can be eligible for any competitive exam. The average package ranges from 6-7 LPA. Apart from that, big companies come to provide internships to students so that they can gain real-world experience.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is great with all the basic amenities provided such as Wi-Fi, library, big classrooms, media room and canteen facilities, which are excellent. Games and sports facilities are also available within the campus. Several games are conducted such as basketball and football.

Faculty: Faculty members and the course curriculum are well-designed in such a manner that helps students for overall development. Exams are conducted twice a year. Apart from that, several tests and assignments are conducted to check student's abilities and weaker parts so they can work on them.

Other: The campus crowd is nice. It conducts its annual fest, all departments fest, functions, and competitions. Scholarships are provided for students from weak economic backgrounds.

Review of Maitreyi College, University of Delhi by Benii.

Placements: As a humanities student, our college does not provide direct placement opportunities for our course. However, commerce students have access to placements, and the placement cell assists students from all courses in securing internships. Companies like Deloitte, ICICI, and many others visit the campus for interviews, primarily for B.Com students.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library are available for students. I don't live in the hostel, but my friends have shared that the hostel food is quite good, and they also get snacks on weekends. Canteen food is nice as well. Our college offers a variety of sports, and participation is open to all, regardless of experience.

Faculty: Our teachers are very well-qualified and knowledgeable. Some are helpful but some don't understand the struggle of students who are in society and mark their attendance 0, and don't even give 1 or 2 marks. Semester exams are not that tough.

Other: I chose this course because of my core interest in politics and I want to prepare for government jobs in the future so this course will help to prepare for my exam. I wish there were some more practical things because it's a whole theoretical which is sometimes frustrating.

It is a good place for studying as it has helpful and good staff members.

Infrastructure: All the amenities are available. The quality of the food is amazing. Facilities are great. The best part is the book collection in the library. We get ice cream and curd from Mother Dairy. The hostel has a very good environment and a variety of plants.

Faculty: All teachers are helpful. The course is interesting. 33% is the pass percentage. 75% attendance is mandatory. Semester exams are easy if we study. Teachers use the best teaching methods and notes. The course offers many options.

I'm satisfied with our college.

Placements: Hi! I'm a student of Political Science (H). This year's data I don't know, but in the year 2021, there were 75-80% of scholarships. Our college's placement cell works really well and efficiently. A lot of well-known companies came to our college for campus placements.

Infrastructure: The best part of our college is the infrastructure. It is really nice and well developed. Though the classrooms are a little old, they give college vibes. The library is also good, but you'd have to search a lot for a book there. The most attractive parts of our college are its greenery, the gardens, and the rock garden, which were recently built. It's the perfect place to see the serenity of nature!

Faculty: The faculty of our department is really supportive and helpful. Though our college is well known for its microbiological studies, our political science department is still nice. Exams are a bit difficult as it's DU level. But most of the students get a percentage of around 97%.

Other: I'm a UPSC aspirant and also really interested in international relations and political studies. The teaching methodology could be developed a little, and it's not only for Maitreyi, but most of the colleges still follow that old teaching style. I've completed my graduation at home due to COVID. My entire 2nd year was spent at home, so I didn't get to enjoy much of college life. But a fest happened in my first year. The area where Maitreyi is situated in a posh and diplomatic area. So, it's safe and really pleasing here.

It's a great college, but due to Covid, there are online studies which are just a waste of money.

Placements: Our college has great placement opportunities for students in various fields. I am preparing for the civil service exam. Our college also provides us with some societies. With the help of them, we can know the basic information about the exam and can crack it.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is great and good here. Hostels are in the process of being built. Our college does not provide Wi-Fi. It has a huge library where you can sit and read as many books as you can. The gardens of the college are well maintained and beautiful. Overall, it is a beautiful college.

Faculty: Some teachers here are really very good who just not only provide us with the bookish knowledge but also teach about major events organised around. But some of them lack the ability to teach, and even I don't know whether they are qualified or not. In online mode, the participation of students is also low.

Other: I think Rs. 36,000 for a course of 3 years is sufficient. In addition, you can also get scholarships if you are unable to pay the fees.

It is a wonderful college with excellent infrastructure.

Placements: I think about 60% of the students got placed in good companies, and the salary package offered is around 8 LPA-10 LPA. For internships and placements, there are different cells in our course. We can get jobs as a consultant or lecturer. Overall, our college provides every student with the best as possible.

Infrastructure: Our college is endowed with the best infrastructure and garden. The library is very informative and peaceful. Classrooms are above average. The canteen is very good and provides the best quality of things. Our college garden is regarded as one of the best gardens of Delhi University. In online mode, we did not get a chance to visit the campus, but as much we've seen, it is the best.

Faculty: Teachers here are very good, informative and helpful. They help all the students, whether in Hindi medium or English. They are very qualitative, very intelligent and knowledgeable. There are very interactive and fun-loving teachers. They gave us ample information for career proceedings.

Other: This course is very demanding nowadays because political science provides us a base for every competitive exam. Apart from them, it keeps us updated about the daily activities conducted in our country.
