Join this college if you can't get admission in JNU or DU.
Placements: There are no direct placements. Head of the Department can tell you about other reputed institutes to pursue higher studies, which will be helpful, but no company will offer placements after your Masters. You have to prepare for NET to pursue a PhD. After the Masters, you should work on your own.
Infrastructure: The dome under which the classes and labs exist was an old cloth mill. The material used is temporary. You will face harsh winters and monsoons humidity. In summers, the hostels get really hot, and it feels like being in an oven. Classrooms have A/C facilities. Currently, the college is run on a temporary campus, it will be shifted to its new campus in 2-3 years which is 18 km away from Guddha campus.
Faculty: There are 3 faculty members in total, among whom, I found Ms Kiran K. Singh the most helpful and student-friendly faculty. She has completed her PhD from Banaras Hindu University. You will find her excellent as a teacher and caring as a mentor. She is hard working, and you can also learn some life values from her.
Other: A sports meet and other activities are conducted in the foundation week in February.
