4.8

The college has good and helpful teachers.
Placements: Above 75% marks are needed to get this course. Right now I don't have much idea about it, but we can get any research department or any museums for work. Top roles offered are researchers, architects, and archeologists. People can get any other working line.
Infrastructure: We have our department which is very big with all the facilities for our needs. As we don't have any hostel in our college, I would not say anything about this. We have a canteen which many students don't use mainly faculty members use the canteen.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful. The curriculum course makes students industry-ready. We get a long study leave before our exam. Usually, we need to study further after completing this course to get a higher job recruitment. 50% is the average mark for passing the semester exam.
Other: I always wanted to study history that is why I chose this course. They organize many educational tours for our betterment.
