Big& beautiful academic building. Highly educated & experience teaching faculty.

Placements: More than 60% students got placement. College having its own placement cell and it conducts exam and interview for placement & interns. The average package offered is something around 5 to 6 Lacs annual. Most of time all of the willing students got interns according to its interest.

Infrastructure: History department have separate classrooms for study with fully furnished and functional. AC facility also provided by college. There are 2 hostels for students, one for boys and one for girls. Each hostel having strength of 75 students. Quality of food is too good under budget with different- different dishes, means all reasons food available in canteen or mess, college ground is too perfect for sports each games having its different site.

Faculty: History Course having more than 30 highly educated faculty member. Teachers are very helpful and they also are ours mentors. Teaching skills is too good & each teacher having its different teaching style according to the comfort of students. Semester exam is tough but we have to attend only 4 question into the. So the pass percentage is high.

Other: History department students enjoy lots of educational trips. Low rate of ragging. Much crowded campus. Do much society of different works.

Good Infrastructure and faculty.

Placements: If I talk reality, Covid has really affected our academics and placements as well as few students out of the whole class got a good chance to go for placement after Bachelors. After B.A. History (Hons), mostly people went for either further studies in M.A. or for content writing jobs. There are lot of internship opportunities that students get, during the period of their graduation. Students get a chance to do internship with many companies and research work. If I talk about myself, I got the chance to work in the internship project "SRI VIPRA.'' but at the same time, I feel History is actually not a very job oriented course but people get packages of around 5 LPA and in other courses, students get good packages.

Infrastructure: Venky has a greatest ground out of all the DU colleges. It has a great framework, Grounded labs, libraries, classes, address room and so forth. Chemistry students haven't entered in labs due to Coronavirus. We haven't visited library since it isn't permitted for second year. In spite of the fact that it has a generally excellent foundation and DU organisation is constantly taking cash from understudies and not giving the offices, so consider it prior to taking confirmation.

Faculty: Teachers are really awesome and are supportive in nature. They will be help you anytime. I can say about every course especially history and chemistry that the educational plan is outdated. We are concentrating on the discussions of nineteenth century which doesn't appear to be legit now a days. Chemistry students are pursuing outdated responses. Passing rate is great now a days in OBE, every student is scoring excellent CGPA.

Other: If the college will resume, then everything will be great. Venky has awesome crowd out of all DU colleges like north campus. I picked this course as History is the course that covers the events over a significant time span and I wanted to study that.

It provides good infrastructure but it is not the only thing that can make our college good.

Placements: The covid has affected our academic and placements as well usually few students out whole class get a good chance to go for placements after Bachelors. After B.A. history honors students usually went to content writer jobs. Students get a chance to do internships with many companies and research work also if I talk about myself then I recently did an internship with the Indian council of social sciences and research. History is a not very job-oriented course but students get a package of around 5 LPA, and in other courses, they get a good amount very good amount.

Infrastructure: It has the biggest ground of all DU colleges. It has a very good infrastructure, well-established laboratories, libraries, classes, lecture rooms, etc. If students are going to take admission nowadays I want to make it clear DU is performing it is the worst. Chemistry honors student has not entered in laboratories for past 2 year due to covid. Students have not visited the library because it is not allowed till the 2nd year. Although it has a very good infrastructure and DU administration is continuously taking money from students and not providing the facilities so think about it before taking admission.

Faculty: Teachers are very good and helpful. They are always ready to help students anytime i.e day or night. All the courses if it is chemistry or history or anything else all curriculum is outdated. Students are studying debates of the 19th century which does not make any sense nowadays. Chemistry students are reading outdated reactions. The pass percentage is good nowadays and every student is scoring very good CGPA.

Other: If college reopens then everything will be good. It has a very good crowd of all DU colleges like the north campus. The administration should improve, and DU's nature creates problems for students. I opted for this course because I want to study history. History is a dialogue between past and present. It is near stay Niketan so it would not be problematic for students to spend time in their free time.

Other than this, some of the well known private sector companies also come to choose the candidates from this college. But, it does not give any surety of placements.

Infrastructure: This college has a large space as compared to many other colleges in DU. It has very good classrooms and furniture. One of the most important things is that it has its own well-maintained ground. College buildings are well maintained, and the canteen of this college is maintained good and is hygienic.

Faculty: This college offers you graduation degree in many various courses. The teaching faculty here are flourished with many well-known teachers in their respective courses. The admission is done on the basis of cut off marks obtained by students in their class 12th.

Life as a student in Sri Venkateswara College (venky).

Placements: There is a placement cell organised every year in our college, which helps students to get to work with different kind of amazing companies. Last year, few of my seniors got placed in the DMRC and many news agencies. Also, different kind of companies show interest in different fields, and that's how students get placed. They need to enrol themselves in the placement cell, and they are called for the interviews which provide them with the exposure of the corporate world.

Infrastructure: Sri Venkateswara college is one of the oldest colleges in the DU and holds a special place amongst the preference of the students who wish to study in the DU. The infrastructure is world-class with a free Wi-Fi provided to the students. We've also got an amazing library, and anyone who is from DU knows how good our college is in sports. Our college is famous for our canteen too which serves the best South Indian food amongst the other DU colleges. The dosa and the egg fried rice is a must to have if you are in Venky.

Faculty: The college has got one of the best teachers for its students. All the teachers either hold a degree of the PhD or are pursuing it. The faculty is amazing with some teachers who are renowned authors of several amazing books. The student-faculty ratio is 16:1, and the teachers are always supportive of us. The course curriculum is of three years, and it gives the perfect theoretical and practical knowledge to the students for their future.

Other: The fest of our college is one of the most famous and awaited fests of the year. Just ask anyone about NEXUS, and they'll tell you how amazing the fest is. The crowd is amazing with the perfect blend of students. There is also no discrimination or ragging. Most of the courses have a very nominal fee like Rs. 10,000 rupees a year, and they provide you with a world-class education. Our college is surrounded by the Satya Niketan which forms student's hub and has got some amazing cafes and restaurants. The college also organises lots of extracurricular activities so that you never get bored of your college life, and you also get to learn new things every day.
