M.A. in Political Science and International Relations - Batch of 2025

3.8

Gautam Buddha University: Not so public.

Placements: No help in placement at all. Although in other courses, the university has a placement cell that works quite well. I have no specific idea of anyone getting placed in my own course, which is a Master's in Political Science and International Relations.

Infrastructure: The food quality of the mess is average. Rooms are big enough for single occupancy with a bookshelf, almirah, bed, tubelight, and one LED bulb. LAN cables are provided for the internet. Washrooms are maintained quite frequently. Overall, the infrastructure of the university and hostel is quite commendable. Classes have centralized air conditioning and smart boards.

Faculty: The faculty are quite good. The course I'm pursuing is relevant in today's era, where youth are taking an interest in politics and policies. Each semester, there are 4 exams: 2 midterms and 2 end-semester exams, respectively. Exams are not too difficult if you make notes and attend classes daily.

M.A. in Economics - Batch of 2020

3.4

You will have to work hard if you join here.

Placements: The batches are quite small, which provides you with nice a good teacher-student interaction. The course provided is based on planning and development. The placements are the worst. There is no placement from this college, and you have to do everything on your own.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure in our university is superb. It is a lush green campus with hostels having only single-occupancy rooms. We have a very well-maintained and hygienic environment all over the classes and hostels. Free Wi-Fi is available in our hostel rooms. Mess service is quite well. The library and a reading room are the biggest assets of our university.

Faculty: The teachers are quite good in their respective subjects and are very friendly with students. The course curriculum is quite similar to the one of DU. But you will have to work hard on the mathematical part on your own as teachers will ignore it because many students are not keen to spare their time on this part.

Other: Events and fests in our university are more frequent than any other college. You can join NSS, NCC and many other groups. All of these clubs have their respective fests and events each week, and you will come to know about a new event in which you have an opportunity to show your talent.
