Review of Urdu department Amu Aligarh.
Placements: 15-20% of students can grab jobs in the market. The highest position or top role offered in my course is that of teacher, and if you wish to be a writer, you can also opt for this career. The highest package is around INR 4-5 lacs as a teacher in some of the top schools in your locality. There is a writing competition for all the best writers.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure is the best. You can have many facilities available here. The classrooms are the best, the library has so many books that there is no need to buy books from the market, and the hostel quality is good. I am a day scholar, so I don't know the facilities, but according to some of my friends, it's best according to price. The medical facilities are available for students.
Faculty: The teachers are too good, qualified, and knowledgeable; the quality of teaching is fantastic. The curriculum is relevant, and yes, it makes us industry-ready too. The semester exams aren't difficult, and the pass percentage is 33%.
