Good university, with qualified and supportive staff.
Placements: In M.A. History, you couldn't get a job immediately after completing the course because it is not a vocational course. But definitely, it gives you other opportunities like higher studies, research about the past. If you are really interested in history, then definitely one should go for it.
Infrastructure: As this is a central government college, so as expected, the infrastructure is not too much attractive. But there is a good and huge library with Wi-Fi and lots of book collections. Separate computer lab and reading hall other than the library. In university hostels, seats are very less, so an average of 20 to 30% students only get the hostels.
Faculty: All teachers are well-qualified. Teaching techniques are also very good, creating a friendly environment. But not always the case; some teachers do not teach as expected. It does not mean that they are not qualified enough, but the fact is that their technique is not as expected. Exams are moderate, not much difficult; one can easily pass if they attend the classes regularly.

Jamia Millia Islamia - A very good place for doing your master's from.
Placements: As this is an arts course, placement does not happen for this course. In fact, placement from any college for these courses does not happen. Although the scope of appearing for NET exam conducted by UGC is there, which is for lecturership and research avenues.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is phenomenal. The campus is humongous. It is spread over quite a large area. The buildings are well equipped. But in some buildings, the desks are a little old. The building for the journalism course is the best of all, it sports a massive 104-inch TV to cater the need of BJMC students.
Faculty: The faculty is on of the best in Delhi. A lot of experienced professors that have experience in teaching with reputed universities like DU and JNU are teaching here. They are very helpful. The curriculum is to the point and very helpful for future endeavours and competitive exams.
