It is a mixed but generally positive review as it supports our future.

Placements: The highest percentage of students is 90%. The highest package is 2-3 LPA, and the lowest is 1 LPA. Top recruiting companies are Haldiram and Coca-Cola. 70-80% students get an internship through society contacts. Roles offered are Food Nutritionist and Food Technologist.

Infrastructure: Facilities are good but not very good. Classrooms are cleaned and have average infrastructure. There is no hostel here. The canteen is good and hygienic, but the prices are slightly high for students. For sports, college participation is good in inter-college competition.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, qualified, and well-explanatory except for 2-3. It makes students ready for the industry, but we haven't visited any industry yet, and it ensures to offer that. The semester exams are not that tough if you study well, as teachers also support, and the pass percentage is around 91%.

Good academics here, but it lacks placement.

Placements: I mean, the academics are great in our college, but placement isn't, and very few get placed, that too with low LPA. There is a nice job, Mela or something, for placements, and points on ships you have to do on your own, and sometimes they don't even give you a recommendation letter.

Infrastructure: We don't have a hostel. Infrastructure is okay, but not much space. The college canteen is okay as it changes from semester to semester, and the faculty and infrastructure are okay, but there is not much to explore. You know, sometimes you need not only to be stuck in subjects and studies. You need something to explore, but there aren't many areas, playgrounds, or anything.

Faculty: Teachers are good, and attendance is mandatory. They maintain a good standard and are very knowledgeable, as well as having good behavior. This semester, exams are moderate or hard, not easy. The subject I am in or the course I am in is related to the industry.

Other: The fest was okay, as there isn't much space for a crowd, but still, it's enjoyable.

A bittersome but sweet experience.

Placements: Most of the students prefer master's after B.Sc. so our college doesn't provide campus placement due to the about mentioned reason. You can apply for an internship during your semester break or after your graduation but our college usually doesn't provide any campus placement. We are suggested to use our summer break time to apply for an internship to boost our resume.

Infrastructure: We don't have hostel facilities in our college due to the residential area. But you can find many affordable PGs near our college in the residential areas and societies. Specifically for my course food technology our infrastructure is very good. We have most of the equipments like trya, dryer, hot air ovens, spray dryer, extraction unit, and spectrophotometer. Classrooms are basic, we have a projector in most of the classes. We have Wi-Fi available in almost all the classrooms.

Faculty: Professors of food technology department are helpful, supportive, not too strict, and very inspiring. They help us with our doubts and hold interactive sessions often. The curriculum is practical-based so it is helpful for industrial work. The semester exams are not difficult. The concepts are easy. Professors are there to help you at every point. The passing percentage of my course is 50%.

Other: I chose this course because it is different, something new and interesting. The course is not difficult, it is a very logical subject. I wish we could incorporate more industrial trips during our semester then it will be more fun and interactive. We have our annual fest called Feria which is massive and very enthusiastic fest of our college. The area near our college has nice food places.

There are high quality curriculum and unique courses.

Placements: Placements are not a consistent feature of the college. There is an active placement cell. The on-campus opportunities are available for courses like Home Science, Fabric & Apparel Science, and Food and Nutrition. Students from other courses pursue Master's.

Infrastructure: College does not have an on-campus hostel, but there are numerous PG accommodations available nearby in areas like Hauz Khas, Shahpur Jat, Malviya Nagar, and Saket. Library is available during college hours. There are spacious labs for all relevant courses and departments. Canteen has a versatile menu, with healthy food options. College has a medical room, an indoor gym for student workouts, resources for various sports and games such as basketball, badminton, taekwondo, chess, and carrom.

Faculty: Most of the teachers are highly qualified experts in their respective fields and well-versed with the curriculum. Teaching quality is excellent. Curriculum is adequate for a bachelor's level course. Teachers frequently discuss industry-relevant topics. Semester exams are not difficult for students who stay consistent with their studies throughout the semester. It is not hard to score 7 GPA, which can be improved to 8+ with extra effort. However, the internal exams can be overwhelming for some students. They conduct two tests and two assignments for almost every subject within a short timeframe.

Other: Course is unique with an interesting curriculum. It is an emerging field with a promising scope in the coming years. Areas for improvement include conducting practical classes in a more relaxed manner. Internal assessment being mapped out in a way that allows a student sufficient time to prepare. College organizes an annual cultural fest, Feria, which is a 2-day event that attracts attendees from across DU. Various societies organize fests and events every year.

Enjoy your college life.

Placements: The percentage of students seeking placement is quite low because you really need connections in this industry. The highest package is 3–4 LPA, the lowest is 1 LPA, and the average is 2–3 LPA. Haldiram's, Coca-Cola, Nestle, Mother Dairy, FSSAI, etc. are the top recruiters. 60–70% of students got internships at Haldiram's, Mother Dairy, the Quality Council of India, FSSAI, and Nestle. QA labs, food safety & health, etc. are the top roles offered.

Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is really bad, classrooms are okay but surely a place where you can enjoy your college life, labs are handy, and the library is average. There should be no hostel, food from the canteen should be improved, medical facilities should be provided properly, and there should be a society for sports and games.

Faculty: Yes, teachers are helpful, knowledgeable, qualified and really good at teaching. Yes, the course curriculum is relevant but to be industry-ready, there should be more practical knowledge and teaching. Semester exams are quite handy, exam pattern is really good and the passing percentage is 40% or above.

Other: I chose this course because I wanted to explore food with science, and this is the only thing about this course where you really learn about your daily food from the roots. Practical knowledge should really be improved for this course Events, festivals, and crowds are quite happening at campus, connectivity is effective; and there is high scope for extracurricular activities as well.

Hi, You are eligible to get admission in this university. But, cut off goes very high. But, I will suggest you to participate in the counselling. And, wait for the last round cut off. If not getting any colleges in last round, then go for private colleges. Best of luck.
