Know about AMU from my eyes.

Placements: The placements provided by AMU are average for most of the students though there are some above-average exceptional cases who received quite good placements as seen from last year. For example, there are many students in foreign colleges who studied at AMU during their bachelor's or master's. In the end, it all depends on the quality of the student.

Infrastructure: English department of AMU being one of the oldest and most reputed in India provides good opportunities and an environment for the student to learn from. Further, the department also includes well-qualified professors from all over India who make the learning experience quite good. As for the hostel facilities, AMU does provide hostel facilities for external students. But getting a hostel becomes tough in the first year of the course so students either live outside by renting a place or stay in annexes of their allotted hostels.

Faculty: Faculty members of arts include departments like psychology, English Linguistics, etc., which offer a good curriculum and they also offer a good environment and well-qualified professors to learn from. Furthermore, the exams conducted by the department are quite well-organized and in a systematic manner with no scope of any kind of cheating.

Horrible attitude issues with faculty. But there is good infrastructure .

Placements: Placements are average, which is around 70%. The average package was INR 4.5 LPA, the highest was INR 8.7 LPA, and the lowest was INR 3.2 LPA. Notable recruiters included publishing houses and media firms. 50% of students got internships at companies like Penguin Random House. The top roles varied from content writers to editorial assistants.

Infrastructure: The English Department offers decent facilities: Wi-Fi, labs, classrooms, and a library. The hostel facilities and food in the mess are satisfactory. Medical support as well as sports facilities are available but could improve. Overall, there are no issues related to any facilities.

Faculty: Teaching, I would say, is a weak point here in the English department. The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable, but they are not helpful at all and also not supportive; they have attitude issues and also skip classes; the curriculum is very lengthy; and exams are very difficult and very lengthy to write.

The food is bad in Aligarh Muslim university hostel.

Placements: Something around 40–50 percent of students get placed with the highest package of about INR 5–6 lacs per annum, while the average package goes up to INR 3–4 lacs per annum. Usually, undergraduates are invited by some top-notch companies like Amazon, Flipkart, and IBM. The internship program is also available, and usually 25%–30% of students are able to grab these opportunities.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is aesthetic as well as enabled with modern teaching. The classrooms are well furnished with a proper air conditioning system, Wi-Fi is available in the campus region, and the library is one of the most beautiful libraries in the world, equipped with tons of books. The hostel rooms are average in terms of cost, the food quality is sometimes too bad, and sometimes it is edible only, so it needs to improve.

Faculty: The teachers are very enthusiastic regarding their teaching method, but of course, some of them aren't like that; they are just there to attend the lecture. You need to go on with your studies, but I would like to point out a problem regarding some teachers: they don't give proper marks in literature subjects.
