    Kirori Mal College at University of Delhi in M.Sc. course intake year 2026 is the best opportunity
    Placements: This college’s placement facilities are good for scoring above 7 CGPA marks because there is a college rule that students below 7 CGPA are not allowed in the placement cell. In this college, companies provide packages like 2.5 Lacs to 5 LPA.
    Infrastructure: In this college, facilities provided are very good and use high-quality infrastructure for providing facilities. There are facilities like classrooms, bathrooms, labs, Wi-Fi, lift, auditorium, etc. Facilities are available, but hostel facility is not available because long-distance students do not take admission in this course.
    Faculty: This college teachers are very good and solve every question of the students. The teachers are very intelligent, and master’s degree qualified teachers teach the students. This course is a total 2-year duration after the Bachelor’s degree, and the exams are not difficult to pass, but scoring marks is hard for a few students only.

    My review of this college.
    Placements: Hansraj has very good placement opportunities. Every year, different MNCs and other companies visit the college for placements. There is a special cell in college for students called the placement cell. For science courses, there are very few opportunities. This college also arranges industrial campus interviews for graduates or postgraduate students for their bright future. Companies like Microsoft, Deloitte, Google, etc., visit the college to offer a good number of jobs to students. The average package offered was 2.5 LPA, and the highest package offered last time was 9 LPA. Students get a proper job through the campus.
    Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are good, and students are provided with basic amenities. Mess food is better than other colleges. Hostel facilities are only for boys. Hostel annual fee is very low and pocket-friendly. Students are provided with good security. The hostel is next to college, and is located near Kamala Nagar.
    Faculty: Faculty members are trained and professionals. They have deep knowledge about it, and I like their way of teaching. Faculty members of the college are really good and supportive of students. They help us out through thick and thin. They guide and mentor us. The best thing of all is that they don't put pressure on students regarding attendance. Every year, two semesters take place and subject changes after each semester. We have one internal assessment of each subject, which carries 25 marks. After that, we have to take one sessional exam, which carries 75 marks. The course structure is as good as it can possibly be. The syllabus of semesters is planned in such a way that students progress right from the basics to the more advanced stuff. The course is supplemented with field work to help students gain more knowledge in their respective fields.
