M.A. in Ancient Indian History, Culture and Archaeology - Batch of 2015

3.6

Absolutely dissatisfied with placement.

Placements: Twenty-five percent of students were placed through campus placement in M.A. ancient history. There were many opportunities for internship programs, but most of them were unpaid and did not require much creative work. Top roles were most related to fieldwork and didn't provide high-profile jobs.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure facility was quite good. The Wi-Fi classroom library was of good quality. There were a number of books available in the library. The hostel and mess were also fine; they don't serve very hygienic food, but they're okay with it. We need a lot of improvement in food quality.

Faculty: The teachers were helpful and supportive, but the pattern was orthodox and did not provide many aspects to gain practical knowledge. The course was interesting, but not particularly practical. Semester exams are not so difficult; they are very repetitive in nature.

Other: Courses must be modified and the pattern of exams needs to be improved. Events are one of the creative things that happen in our college.
