A good college with beautiful experiences.
Placements: Only a few students were placed by the college and most of them weren't placed at all. There is a placement cell that helps students get placed but I never really tried approaching them. So part of me not being placed might be my fault but the college does provide placements.
Infrastructure: The classrooms were big and well structured but no proper classroom was ever allotted to my course classes. The library is digitalized and provides a wide range of books that are both educational and fictional. The Cafeteria is big and has a lot of shops to buy your choice of food.
Faculty: The curriculum was well structured and helped us learn and grow in our choice of fields. In Journalism classes we had a more practical curriculum were we learned how to write a good piece and we're allowed to be creative with whatever articles that we produced. The other courses like Public Policy and International Relations also had a great curriculum that thought us a lot of new things that would always come in use.
Other: The major fests weren't that we'll organized but the other minor and literary events were well organised. There are a few important events like the events organised by open heart that hold a lot of value in teaching the students the value of life by inviting people who are well known.
