It is an old college living with prestige.

Placements: One session is conducted for all the placement process. Maximum people pursue master. 65% of people get the internship opportunity for the students at the end of semester or the end year. Maximum people got placements with the professional certificate course.

Infrastructure: Professors try to make the course more engaging and interesting. Facilities are good. Infrastructure is also good. Wi-Fi is available on campus. One museum is made by an archaeology student. Sports and games are conducted every semester. Canteen is okay, not so good.

Faculty: Professor is very helpful towards academics and makes sure every student participates in extra-curricular activities, which is quite good thing. The course curriculum is relevant. Even there are professional course designed for students to be industry-ready. The semester exam is hard. We have to study to pass. If we attend all the lectures, we will give good answers in the exam. This college is affiliated with Banaras Hindu University.

Other: I chose this course for my interest in archeology, the exposure of old temple and stories related to it, and evidence of past is quite interesting topic. As per NEP, this course has fieldwork too. Events are always happening, and national level scholarships are open.

It is a good college for academics, but it should broaden its perspective.

Placements: Approximately a minimum of 40 and a maximum of 60 students are placed every year in the Archaeology department of Vasanta College for Women. It has great career opportunities and provides hands-on experience in different fields of archaeology. Students enjoy opportunities for internships from renowned institutions like Gyaan Pravah, the National Museum, and ASI, with a 90% chance for the same.

Infrastructure: Every facility is available here, including Wi-Fi, a library, and AC computer labs. The classrooms are big and well-ventilated. Students also enjoy the facility of open classrooms that provide a view of the River Ganga along with nature. The hostel (Vasantashram) facilities are also great. They provide good food, which is clean and caters to the needs of children staying there. Medical facilities are also provided with a doctor. Rejuvenating activities like Zumba and yoga are also available. The hostel is big enough, with a badminton court and a garden that provides a good environment.

Faculty: Teachers are very qualified and knowledgeable. The AIHC department has excellent connections with other institutions that give students recurring workshops and seminars, which provide hands-on experience with their subjects. It is wholesome and enriching. Since the workshops are curriculum-based, it helps us in examinations as well. The semester has medium difficulty, but it would help if there were a certain amount of education in the syllabus. 50% and above is considered a pass.

Other: I opted for this course because I had an interest in ancient history and loved to excel in it from the start. The most interesting aspect that I like about it is the hands-on experience, which is my favorite part of attending this institution. The teachers have great connections, through which we benefit a lot. Teachers should be a bit more active to avoid delays. Campus crowd and fests don't generally happen here, but students are sent to the main campus to attend them. Built in a remote area, it has less connectivity than the rest of the colleges that are closer to the heart of the city.
