Life at Aligarh Muslim University.
Placements: In my passing batch, around 85% of the students got placed in top companies like Unacademy, IFFCO, Aakash Institute, Zomato, Ambuja, and Awadh Girls College, among others. Also, various companies like FIWE and Delhi offered internship programs. Recently, IFFCO Saudi came for campus placement and offered a pretty good package of about 12 LPA.
Infrastructure: In my course, we have 2 separate classrooms assigned for our lectures and a large, well-equipped laboratory. The entire campus has free Wi-Fi access for all the bona fide students. Maulana Azad Library is the best place to study until 2 a.m. Apart from this, personal seminars are also available in each department. College hostels are really good given the low fees. Meals are good as per the hostelers' wishes.
Faculty: The faculty is highly qualified, holding degrees from international universities. They have deep knowledge about the subjects that they teach and make learning more enjoyable with regular seminars, assignments/projects, fieldwork, etc. The curriculum is the first thing I checked before admission to this course; it is good as per the exam schedule.
Other: I chose this course because I have always been amazed by daily life activities and everything I eat, I see. I wish the course had more field visits. University is not all about being bookwork; rather, it focuses on providing a wider experience by organizing different types of fests, sports activities, drama, musical fests, and hall weeks to celebrate festivals and anniversaries of famous personalities.

Faculty members of our college are awesome and provide great knowledge to us.
Placements: Around 80% of the students got internships from our college. Our department conducts different workshops and provides knowledge on how we can perform experiments and what precautions should we take. We can get some hands-on training about our subject which will be more helpful for us.
Infrastructure: The library provides almost all types of books which can help us a lot to study. Our college also provides high-speed Wi-Fi facility so that students can use the internet for their study. If some books are not available in the library, teachers apply for other books and instantly provide them to students.
Faculty: Teachers in our department are very helpful and very knowledgeable. They provide good knowledge of our subject and aware of the other things. They also encourage us very much and motivate us to write national level exams like CSIR, NET and GATE. If we qualify in those exams, we get admission in a good institute to pursue a PhD and different things.
Other: Our campus is very nice, and our department provides scholarships to students for their education. Students can apply for government scholarships also and get some amount of money for their need.
