AMU college is the most affordable university among all other universities.
Placements: The Aligarh Muslim University is one of the best universities around the globe and I am enrolled in the political science department and the yearly fee of the course is 11337. Talking about placement, we get it in the 3rd year yearly of minimum 6 lakhs And maximum is 15 lakhs. Many companies come here for the placements.
Infrastructure: The facility provided by campus is unexplainable. Our university provides free internet or Wi-Fi for the student; there is no charge for the hostel and the infrastructure of the campus is outstanding. This is copy from Cambridge. Talking about the food in our university, there is a monthly fee for dining food of 1400, in which our dining provides 3-time food. The medical facilities are provided by the university free of charge for the students. During admission, the health center provides hygienic and good food for the patient. Games Club is on campus for games. Some other clubs are also on the campus.
Faculty: In university, the teachers are very cooperative towards the students and the teachers are very experienced and very highly qualified. In the university, professors used to teach us. Yes, it makes the students industry-ready. Semester is quite difficult but some times teachers give some freedom to students for their semester exam.
Other: I chose this course because in future I am trying to do civil services and for that purpose I chose political science. Faculty is very good. One thing that is good in my faculty is that all teachers are looking and preparing the students as UPSC aspirants. Fests, events and crowds take place every week on the Kennedy campus .

The loveliest and best campus life is that of AMU.
Placements: Mostly all courses get placements in the university but most of the placements are of B.Tech and BA LLB students. The placement of faculty of Arts & Social Science students is very low. The highest package is around 2 crore per annum from Amazon. The lowest package is around 5 lakhs per annum. Average package is 8 lakhs per annum.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the university is very good but not all the classrooms are good; some of the classrooms have become very old, due to which children face difficulty in studying but all the students get a lot of facilities , like wifi unlimited all around campus without any charges. Gym is available for university students and all types of sports are available in university.
Faculty: The professors here are well qualified and very helpful. If any student has any doubt, he can directly call the professor. The professor's method of studying is very unique and in interesting ways . There are many sessions here and the objective-type exams are of 15 marks and the semester exams are of 70 marks. If someone wants to easily prepare for other competitive exams while studying, then it's very difficult.
Other: My course is political science. I am very interested in politics, so I chose political science as a subject. My target is UPSC CSE, so I have political science and international relations as my optional subjects. Many programs and conferences are held here, which help the students a lot. AMU campus is one of the best and most beautiful campuses in India.The seniors here are very good and helpful and always motivate their juniors.
