It has exhausting campus life, but heavenly good if there's someone's support in life.

Placements: Placements in Shaheed Bhagat Singh College are satisfactory for students studying commerce courses like B.Com Programme and B.Com honours. Companies like Deloitte, Zomato, etc., visit the campus. It is decent for B.A. Economics honours and below average for other courses

Infrastructure: There is no hostel facility available in the college for either our B.A. History honours courses nor for any other courses. Hostels are available in very few DU colleges, and SBSC is not one of them. It is available only for staff. The infrastructure is good for our course, but some places are outdated. Canteen food is sometimes available with a few items, but they are good. Medical facilities are provided. A sports ground and an indoor sports room are available.

Faculty: Faculty members of our course are good. They are well qualified, and many of them have done Ph.Ds. They come from a good educational background and are highly knowledgeable. The quality of teaching is good. But the course curriculum is sometimes exhausting but good. Semester exams are super easy.

Exploring college life and academics.

Placements: As a first-year student pursuing History Hons from Shaheed Bhagat Singh College, I am still exploring the different career opportunities after graduation. One major advantage after doing graduation from History Hons is that you can work in research, archaeology, and NGOs. But the major challenge is that there may be fewer direct investment.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our college is very good. Our classrooms are very spacious and have smartboards with Wi-Fi connectivity and AC facilities. But these types of classrooms are only available in C block. Other block classrooms are ordinary. I am rating the infrastructure with 4 stars because the infrastructure of our college is very nice, but they don't have a hostel, which creates a major problem for students.

Faculty: Faculty members for our course are excellent. They explain the topics clearly to make it easier for students to understand. I am not familiar with the examination pattern because I am a fresher, but regular guidance from teachers helps me to understand everything. They are all well-experienced and well-trained.

Other: The only thing I didn't like about this college is that their sports ground is under construction. This is the biggest hindrance for a sportsperson. Secondly is the online class concept is too frustrating for a morning student because sometimes your online classes are conducted during evening time also, i.e., even after attending offline classes.

SBSC has one of the best campus, faculty members and crowd.

Placements: As I belong to B.A. Hons. History, we don't usually get direct placement with a B.A. degree. We have to further enhance our portfolio. But as far as concerned about the fact for placement with a direct B.A. degree it's quite hard to grasp, but if you are going excellent, you may get.

Infrastructure: About infrastructure, SBSC quite lags behind in its atmosphere. Other than that, I have to admit that we have one of the best libraries and reading halls. There are smart classes where almost 99% of our classes are held and have AC compilations as well.

Faculty: History Hons has got one of the best faculties in SBSC. Faculty members are very interactive, communicate, and help students. I would say SBSC has one of the best faculties in other departments as well, as I have many friends in other departments and they usually admire them.

Other: I want to do CSE, so I thought History Hons could be the most preferable option. The best thing about my course is History Hons, and it is a very scientific discipline. So we do not usually just assume things, we even prove them. For improvement, I would say more relevant reading and direct reading should be done. We have to read multiple books just for a unit, which is quite hectic. I don't have any experience of fest and all.

Best infrastructure, very supportive teachers, and the best library in South Campus.

Placements: The placement scenario in B.A. History Hons at Shaheed Bhagat Singh College is not good. Most students prepare for government exams. Some students pursue higher studies like M.A., research, and Ph.D. from top universities such as JNU and DU because of their passion for the subject.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is improving compared to previous years. Block C is completed and provides modern facilities. There are digital boards and air-conditioned classrooms. A new sports complex is under development for indoor games. There is also a two-floor, fully air-conditioned reading hall with comfortable chairs.

Faculty: Most of the teachers are very kind and supportive towards their students. Many of them are from top universities and have expertise in their respective academic fields, along with Ph.D. degrees from reputed universities in India. History Department teachers regularly publish articles in various newspapers.

Underrated college in South Campus.

Placements: As I have not placed till now, the placements are very good enough. Many famous companies visit, and from my side, as I have heard, for B.A., the package is very low, but B.Com receives very good packages and placements. Many famous companies like HCL, Amazon, Flipkart, etc., visit Shaheed Bhagat Singh. Internships are available from the 2nd year onwards.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good enough, and if we talk about the hostels, hostels are not provided in every college of DU. Some colleges have hostels, but the hostels are not good enough. Food quality is really very good, the mess and canteen are very good, neat, and clean, and the sports ground is also big.

Faculty: The teachers are very helpful and knowledgeable. The quality of teachers is good. This course is very good enough for art students; basically, it’s very good. Semester exams are totally dependent on the PYQ. The same questions come in the PYQ. Passing marks for every paper differ as per the total marks.

Other: The fests also take place, the crowd is good enough, and connectivity is also like the metro station available. Scholarships are also provided as per the criteria, and activities of sports happen.

Satisfied with the college, there was an opportunity to do lots of things.

Placements: As I am not from a commerce background, and am a humanities student, there were not that many placement opportunities for our course. But, yes, there were some placements in humanities in a limited number. However, there were mainly placement opportunities available in B.Com, Economics, and other courses that have higher placement opportunities.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure was average, but, yes, there was rapid growth/construction on the campus. Measures were taken by the administration to improve infrastructure, which is impressive. Yes, there were still lots of sectors for improvement. The library was under renovation, and the playground was also under renovation. It's going to be completed in a few months.

Faculty: The curriculum is good, not bad—kind of average. However, it was designed for better delivery of education to students and personality development. As for the faculty, it varies depending on who teaches. Some professors give their best to clear doubts, while some are just teaching in their ways from the 1990s. So, it varies.

Other: As this is a government institution [central university], funded directly by the central government, the fees were low compared to private universities. Due to its location in Delhi (the capital), it provides lots of opportunities. The crowd and campus are good. Yes, you will find stone smokers & drinkers as well outside the campus, but yes, there was strict prohibition, so you may find such people or students outside the campus, but not inside the campus.

SBSC: A unique college offering challenges and opportunities.

Placements: Shaheed Bhagat Singh College is mostly a commerce centric college. The placements vary but generally only commerce students get placed. We do have a placements cell but the jobs offered to non-commerce students, especially Humanities students are very mediocre at best and range only about 3 LPA-6 LPA at most.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure-wise, the college is great and Principal Proof. We have smart boards installed in the classes, seminar hall styled classrooms, new entire floors dedicated to teaching and library, etc.

Faculty: Faculty-wise, we recently had permanent interviews for all the departments. Hence, all the faculty members are mostly new and top-notch in the University. The curriculum is obviously the best what DU offers for the course. The exams are conducted in a smooth fashion with timely updates on our college portals and website.

Other: I chose B.A. History Hons. as my course mainly due to my interest in the discipline and the fact that it would help me in my preparation for civil services. The college provided me an excellent space to develop my studies in the field with equal range of co-curricular activities. The student aid found/scholarships are provided to the needy students. Events are also frequently happening on-campus which add to the college life. Overall, the campus crowd is great and adds to the overall experience as an undergraduate student studying in DU.

Good infrastructure, disciplined environment and good faculty members.

Placements: College provides very few placements to the students of History honours while majority of the placements are for commerce students. Largely the students prepare for civil services exams or go for higher studies. Very few students get placements while college provides a good number of internships programs which are paid.

Infrastructure: College has a very vast infrastructure with a large ground and garden in the campus. College has Wi-Fi accessibility across the campus. College is fairly active in sports and participates in various sports competitions. The college has a reasonable priced canteen facilities along with a good variety of menu being available.

Faculty: The curriculum is largely dependent on the textbooks. The teachers are very reputed and have done remarkable works in their respective fields. They carry years of experience which helps the students to discuss career options with them. The semester exams are not very hard to pass, students through a little hard work, can pass the semester exams.

Other: College has a very disciplined environment. It has numerous societies which provide extra curricular exposure to the students.
