Review of Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur.

Placements: I am Aradhana Yadav. I am currently doing an M.A. in sociology at Deen Dayal Upadhyaya Gorakhpur University. In my batch, 60 students are enrolled. Placement is not good in M.A., but a few students are placed at 2 to 4 LPA, and the average package is 3 LPA, and many students in PG are studying for the NET JRF examination.

Infrastructure: Deen Dayal Upadhyaya University is one of the largest universities because it has many hostels and departments for students, and Wi-Fi is also available in every department, and in our university, many sports activities are held regularly.

Faculty: The faculty are so supportive at our university. They teach at the level of the NET JRF examination, and they provide assignments and tests also in our university semester examination held every six months, and the passing percentage is approximately 33 percent; every student passes the semester examination.

Other: This course is good for Ph.D.s, so I chose this course.

Our university has the best campus with excellent benefits.

Placements: There are no placements offered in our course, M.A. Sociology. Campus placements are only offered for BBA, MBA, and B.Tech courses. Around 18 students were placed in the MBA course. The placements are offered by a company named Scholar Academy Bangalore. This company offered the highest salary package of 6 LPA and the lowest salary package was 3 LPA. There are no internships that have been offered to them in recent years.

Infrastructure: There are facilities available for every course. Facilities like free Wi-Fi connection, RO water, medical services, canteen, library, etc. Also, a smart class facility is available in our department. The hostel is the worst on our university campus. Every facility is limited and unhygienic. There is no proper cleaning done in our hostel. Also, the hostel mess food quality is very poor and has no taste at all. They make food in unhygienic conditions. Overall, our campus's hostel experiences have been the worst in comparison.

Faculty: Teachers in our college were helpful and highly qualified. They had great knowledge of our subject. They teach very well. This course doesn't make us industry-ready. Semester exams in our college are very easy as all questions come from class notes. The pass percentage of our college is very good, ?about more than 90 percent.

Other: I chose this course as I thought it was the best option for a postgraduate degree. Our course develops thinking about social concerns. Our course syllabus must be updated with some extra topics. We have the best campus life and campus crowd. We get the Saksham Scholarship from the government.

Good campus in local and has good infrastructure and facilities.

Placements: No placement is provided in our course but other courses like BBA, MBA, and B.Tech students get placement offers. Recently, students from BBA and MBA students on campus have got placements in Scholar Academy Bangalore. They have been offered a maximum salary package of 5 LPA and the lowest salary package offered was 3 LPA. The posts offered are management trainee, business development associate, and human resource executive. The average salary package offered was 2 LPA. About 80% of students have got placements in those courses.

Infrastructure: The facilities and Infrastructure in our department are the best. I like every facility provided in our department. All facilities like a clean classroom, free Wi-Fi, labs, library, medical facility, sports ground, etc., are available in our course. I like hostel facilities the most because they provide all facilities in hostel as home. We get a room having two separate beds, two separate study tables, two separate cupboards, electricity 24x7 hours, free Wi-Fi, mess, etc. Mess food quality is very good and hygienic. We get different meals on different days. A canteen on campus is also available that feels like premium hotels. Canteen meals are very healthy, hygienic, and affordable. Sports are organised with other colleges every year.

Faculty: Teachers on campus are very helpful and familiar with our department. They are highly qualified and have many years of experience in their subjects. They teach much better than other colleges teachers. This course does not make us industry-ready. Exams are not tough in this college. Every question in the exam belongs to our syllabus. So we can easily pass by studying. The pass percentage is best as only very few students fail.

Other: I chose this course for becoming a professor in Sociology at any prominent university in India. I also have much more interest in sociology subject. All things in our course are best and no improvement is needed according to me. Events, extracurricular activities, scholarships, fests, etc., are available on this campus for all courses students.
