    Absolutely recommended in terms of infrastructure, and still, the college is recommended overall.
    Placements: B.A. is not a very demanding course in terms of placements. At least 15 to 20% of the students got their placement. The highest package from B.A. last year was nearly 15 LPA, and I am not sure about the lowest package, but the average goes around 4 to 5 LPA. Even in B.A., there are recruitment opportunities from the top companies like EY. At least 40% of the students got the internship from the college itself, and others were capable enough to get off-campus internships. Roles are like HR, product manager, consultant, etc.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the college is world-class, especially the artificial intelligence block at the university. It is fully equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi and technology even in the washrooms. Classrooms are fully digital with 5 large screens in a single class, promoting a digital environment. Talking about the hostel, the hostel rooms are good. The only disadvantage is the common washrooms of the hostel. The hostel mess is very clean with above-average taste of food. The free medical facility is provided by HCL Healthcare. The sports and games facility of the college is world-class.
    Faculty: Professors are well-qualified from the top universities across India and foster a student-centric education system. Professors use fully digital methods as instructed by the university. The university has the setup of an active learning space, which I think is a very rare addition in the Indian education system. The course curriculum is very nice here, with the addition of interdisciplinary courses and spiritual courses in some cases, for the overall development of students. The exams here are conducted in a very formal manner with severe strictness in terms of invigilation. The passing percentage is quite high.
    Other: I have to prepare for civil exams. Galgotias can provide me with all the facilities. One of the best things about B.A. Political Science at Galgotias includes the educational visits that Galgotias provides from time to time for a better understanding of the Indian political system. The university can focus on the timetable setting. The rest is fine. If you are interested in events, fests, college life, infrastructure, and extracurricular activities, then this university is the go-to place for you. Extremely recommended.

    Galgotias has excellent campus infrastructure and good 2015 placements. The faculty is bad.
    Placements: 90% of students from our course get placements in the media and news industry. Our college is very good at giving placements to students. Placements are provided in companies like NDTV, Aaj Tak, Salaam Namaste, Republic Bharat, etc.
    Infrastructure: Our college facilities are good. The infrastructure is adopted from Singapore. College gives us very good types of classes and they also provide smart classrooms too. Facilities are very good.
    Faculty: Our teachers are very helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. They give us a good education. There is a good education system. They teach us practically and theoretically too. They provided proper notes and visual videos to help us to learn and it gave us good exposure in exams. They provide field visits to help us get experience. There are so many faculty members who did jobs in so many news channels.
    Other: On our campus, the crowd is very good. The people of Galgotias are very well mannered and their way of talking is also very good.

    Overall, it's a good university because of great infrastructure and decent faculty.
    Placements: In our college, most students got placed. One must get an 8 CGPA to sit in the placement round. Many companies come to our campus like Deloitte, Infosys, Amazon, and many more. The average package is 5.25 LPA and the overall highest package of our college is 1.5 crores per annum. Most of the business course students got placed in the sales department with the average package of 3 LPA-4 LPA.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our college is excellent. Wi-Fi is provived in all the blocks. Classrooms are spacious and the classes are very interactive as big monitors and projectors are available in all the classes. Library is also good with books of all genres available and course books are available too. There are only boys hostel at our university and it's pretty good. The food quality is acceptable and the mess is very clean.
    Faculty: Faculty members of our college are good. Most of them are highly qualified. Most teachers have good teaching quality, but some of them need to improve more. Course curriculum which is provided to us is very relevant. Exams are easy if you study well. Pass percentage is 40%.
    Other: I chose this course because I find economics very interesting as a subject and I want to pursue data analytics, so this course is very helpful for me. Coming to the events and fest, many events are organized in our college and the biggest event is the Unifest which is held in April. There are many clubs in our college like music, dance, sports, teach, modelling, fashion, linguistic, placements, etc. The crowd on our campus is decent.

    College life is one of a person's most memorable and enjoyable phases.
    Placements: Almost all capable students got placed. Recruiting companies are Wipro and Corrizo. Roles offered are HR and counselor. Students' placement depends upon their abilities and motivation for their major. Also, mentors are engaged in active learning and teaching with new methods.
    Infrastructure: Infrastructure is the best. All essential resources are available. Advanced and e-classrooms are available. Wi-Fi is a bit slow at first, but once you get used to the place, it works better. Classrooms are so clean and hold enough space also. Campus is insta-worthy must join.
    Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified meeting our requirements and the curriculum has a lot of subjects. Also, every subject serves a purpose for different learning backgrounds. Semesters are easy if you focus on classroom. According to the teaching quality, you will be able to understand whatever is taught to you.
    Other: Lots of opportunities flooding in this university.

    Unplugged diary of IMS Noida.
    Placements: Around 20% of students got placed and left students placed on their own. The highest salary package offered was maximum between 2 LPA - 2.5 LPA. Hari Bhoomi, Amar Ujala, and Dainik Jagran approached for the campus interview last year. Most of the students got internships. Approximately 60% of students got internships but not from this college side they got for their efforts. Editor and assistant produce were roles offered.
    Infrastructure: If we talk about the facilities Wi-Fi access was very good on campus. Lab was also better and useful where as library had a good number of journals and books. Hostel was not available for boys, that was available only for girls on campus. Hostel provided a better accommodation for girls. Food quality was also good as per girls review. Sports facilities were available on campus but the ground was short.
    Faculty: Teachers were helpful in my department but arrogant in the admin department and not supportive at all. The teaching quality was also good. If we want to enter the media industry this course was good for us. We will be able to fit ourselves in the industry. During the first semester, students think exams will be very hard but no exam was not much hard. If we cover the topics, then we can perform well.
    Other: I chose this course because I am interested in knowing what is going on in the world and country. Journalism allows me to perform this action on job. I wish that admin behaviour should be good and helpful to students. There was no fest conducted at this college. Campus crowd was better and campus life was also good. No scholarship was available here.

    Good college for budget friendly studies.
    Placements: In my course, the placement rate was not very good. Companies offered low salaries with lengthy and restrictive bonds. The average package for students who secured placements was 3.20 LPA. Internships were not provided by the university; we had to find them on our own.
    Infrastructure: The buildings are good, and the campus is a nice place for both relaxation and study. Labs and classrooms are modern and improving day by day. Hostel options are available in two ways: one on campus for boys with a fee of 1.1 lakh, and another hostel for both boys and girls, located 12 km away in a better area.
    Faculty: The faculty for the course is good and interactive, with solid knowledge of the subject. The course curriculum is well-suited for the degree and helps students understand everything a bachelor's student should know. Semester exams are not difficult if you have enough knowledge about the subjects.
