satisfied with good infrastructure, brilliant faculty, and a nice environment.
Placements: In my college, the average number of students is 45 in political science. Hons course. Honestly, there is no specific company that offers jobs after pursuing a B.A. in political science. But once you have done this course, you can try journalism (UPSC LL.B.) and teaching. And you have to struggle for internships.
Infrastructure: Classrooms are good but sometimes there are many issues with electrical items like fans. There is a Wi-Fi facility but it does not work in all classrooms. The library is nice but the quality of the food is okay. The canteen price is low so everyone can afford it easily.
Faculty: The faculty in the Political Science department are very nice, and their teaching methods are excellent. They prepare us very well and the difficulty of the exam is moderate to high. Pass percentage is approximately 40% above. But sometimes teachers skip the classes for their own good.
Other: Because I want to LL.B., this course will be very helpful in UPSC if my mind changes in the future. Cultural events take place and once or twice a year we can see the fest. It is totally worthy.

Review of Vivekananda College.
Placements: There is no placement cell in the college, and no company arrives for the same. The college doesn't claim to have placement offers for students applying for admissions. Students can apply for internships throughout their graduation.
Infrastructure: The college has a huge area which leads to a very good infrastructure for students, which includes two computer labs and a huge library. The college campus has two auditoriums and canteens. The college doesn't have a hostel for students, but there are a lot of PGs around the college.
Faculty: The faculty in our college are really nice, polite and supportive. The teachers are highly qualified and provide notes to students. The course curriculum is designed according to the university and its course structure. The semester exams are fine and divided into internal and external marks.
Other: VNC also has annual fests. They're really nice. Apart from that, they conduct freshers and farewell parties accordingly.

Vivekananda College DU review.
Placements: The salary package offered in the BA in political science hons course is 4 LPA - 5 LPA. HDFC Bank, Asian Paints, Cognizant, Yes Bank, and Accenture visit the college. In this course, the majority of people go for civil service exams. IAS bureaucracy, foreign minister, and many high-level jobs are achieved through B.A. political science.
Infrastructure: There is no hostel facility. It is a girls' college. The infrastructure is nice with due importance to greenery and nature. Wide varieties of trees and flowers are there. In a garden area, benches and wings are also there. A vast race track and volleyball ground are also there. Sports like hockey, kabaddi, and basketball are given great recognition. Labs also have working computers. The library is also well-managed and up-to-date. Proper arrangements and computers are there to check the availability of books.
Faculty: The majority of teachers have completed their Ph.D. They are experts in their respective subjects. Additional subjects provide students insight into today's world and make them industry-ready. Varieties of courses and additional courses are offered. Some teachers pay to overall holistic development by making the class attentive and giving presentations, workshops, and debates. Sometimes, others just fulfill the marking criteria by taking tests only.
Other: I am a UPSC aspirant, so this course helps me more in my desired field like how the government works, the functioning of government, drawbacks, and how to tackle contemporary problems. Annual events take place other than that, different societies also organise events and fests. It invites guests, speakers, dancers, singers. The crowd is all girls. There is a peaceful environment.

I am satisfied with the faculty and infrastructure. It provided good placements in 2018.
Placements: It is one of the good colleges. My experience at this college is good enough. Almost 90% of students get a good placement at the college. Almost 85% of students got respectable internships from our college. Companies offer a good salary for students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. The quality of the food served is good. We get a lot of variety when it comes to food, sports, etc. Medical facilities are good here. Wi-Fi facility is strong, which eases it for teachers during online classes. The library available in our college is one of our favourite places. The library is fully equipped, well-maintained with an easy system.
Faculty: Teachers in our college are well-qualified. They are friendly with us. They take care of every student. They are a little strict when it comes to studies, so we get good marks. They also prepare us for life. Other than classes, they give us some extra knowledge related to different topics around the world.
Other: The fee offered by the college is good, and it is value for money. The campus crowd is good enough. Mainly students with good ambition take admission to this college. The environment of this college encourages us to be a better version of ourselves. Our college should provide better facilities in our classrooms and washrooms.

Satisfied with the faculty members but not with the placement cell.
Placements: The placement cell of our college is average. It's not that good as compared to the other Delhi University colleges. Only 5% of students are placed not more than that. Average package is around 1-2 Lacs only and the highest is around 4-5 Lacs. They can improve the placements of our college by giving more opportunities to the students and inviting good companies.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is fine and decent. They provide many facilities like availability of Wi-Fi, gym, many sports, library and other many labs. The auditorium of our college is very spacious and pretty good. Canteen also serves good quality of food.
Faculty: Faculty members are good and helpful. They help us to be practical in life and practically apply the concepts in our life. They are very motivating and supporting at the same time. They help us in clearing every concept whether on or off hours of college.
