Overall, the best university for M.A. in Political Science Course.

Top roles offered are Policy Analyst, Legislative assistant, etc. 65% students got internship opportunities from our batch.
Infrastructure: The provided hostel was not very good; it was relatively ancient and ill-maintained. Additionally, the quality of the food was not very good, although it depends on the palate. Political and social science had its own department, and the library held all the materials needed for this course.
Faculty: The instructors are highly skilled and knowledgeable in their fields. The instructors are supportive and offer career and future guidance to the students. Students graduate from this course with a fair understanding of the industry and are prepared for the workforce. Exams for the semester are fairly challenging. It has a 72% pass rate.

Not quite happy or satisfied .
Placements: The placement data that was shared for our each showed that only 60% of the students were able to get a placement offer. The highest package offered for this course was around 6.5 Lacs rupees per annum. The lowest package offered was for 2 Lacs per annum.
Infrastructure: The hostel that was offered was not that great, it was not maintained properly and was quite old. And food quality was not that great but depends upon people's taste buds. There was a separate department for political and social Science and there was a library that had all the resources necessary for this course.
Faculty: The exams that happen are generally difficult some subjects are quite easy to pass and for some thorough preparation is required. The teaching quality is good the teachers have a good knowledge of their area and the course doesn't try to cover the industry or practical aspects.
