It is quite good in my thought. I love the place.
Placements: I got admission, and I don't know about my seniors. Every type of students can get admission. Every batch has their own class timings, so nobody can get distributed. Students with low marks can also get admission and choose the course they like, and admission fees are taken for one year at the time of admission.
Infrastructure: The classes are cleaned, but benches are messed up, and systems aren't working. Some benches are broken too. The teachers are good. Other areas are also cleaned. We can take rest in the garden and can take food in the canteen area. Students enjoy here and relax on the campus.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, and teach us the best, as much as can they do for us. They also want our review about the topic after the lecture finishes. They teach us and give us suggestions for exams preparations. They give us new ideas on how can we manage our time in the exam.
Other: There are no events.

It is a university with a good reputation.
Placements: The placements were good, and in my course, the placements were related to the NGOs and social works. Many students of my batch and the seniors batch are part of such placements. The teachers also encourage the students to join the placements and is a plus point of the university which helps the student in making their career.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good. The library is well-developed, and the classrooms are big. Also, the university provides lots of facilities and many students have become a reputed person while studying at Delhi University. Shahrukh Khan and Ayushman Khurana were such good examples.
Faculty: Teachers are very supportive in a way that we cannot imagine, and the teachers are like the ideals of the students. They are very supportive, friendly, encouraging, and motivated towards the students. They also provide lots of ways to enhance the knowledge. They also provide notes time to time and help them through online also.
Other: The fests are also conducted in the college, and these are famous among the students in general. Also, extracurricular activities are held every month.

Overall a good college to take admission in Delhi.
Placements: The placement offered at my college is good. But the average package served is less. It goes around Rs. 1.5 lakh per annum. So, it is not good for an aspiring student who deserves more than this. The students get PPO. Microsoft, L&T and Infosys visit our college every year to recruit the students.
Infrastructure: The library is huge and has all the books. The food in the canteen is nice. The classrooms are big, but they are always messed up. There is no hostel facility for the students of this college. Wi-Fi is available everywhere on the campus, but sometimes it stops working in some area of the college.
Faculty: The student to faculty ratio is 50:1. Many of the teachers are PhD holders, and teaching skill possessed by them is good. They teach in an updated manner. They are knowledgeable. They teach us with the PPT and give us regular assignments. Many co-curricular activities take place in our college regularly.
Other: I mentioned that the extra co-curricular activities take place in our college but they are still not enough to cover each activity so many students refrain from their talent. My college needs a lot of development. Overall it is a very good college, DU.

Delhi University- Political Science Honours- A good experience.
Placements: Placements were good for my batch. Many leading and reputed companies came to the campus. Around 90% students were placed, thanks to modernistic and practical teaching by professors. The course was the perfect training for our career in the workplace. The average stipend was Rs. 15000 and the average salary was around Rs. 3 lakhs CTC.
Infrastructure: A peaceful campus with al the facilities. Lots of options for sports along with fresh air, clean hostels and tasty food at the canteen make it a lot of fun for the students. I didn't face infrastructure issues and the management team is very efficient, I must say.
Faculty: I liked a lot of professors like Prof. Sunil Khanna, and Navin Kapur. They make you understand every concept thoroughly, as they are masters in their field. Regular visits to companies make a difference in the lives of the students along with a hands-on curriculum.

Other: I think this is one of the best Universities of India. The Crowd of University is awesome. If I talk about education quality, University Colleges provide best quality education in India. The biggest negative point of University is that all university colleges don't have hostel facilities. Outstation students have to struggle for PG accommodation, which is eventually very costly.
