The Education with the Beauty of the Hills of Himachal in Himachal Pradesh University.

Placements: The placement rate here is around 50% to 70%. The average package here is between 3 LPA to 4 LPA, and the highest package can attain up to 8 LPA to 10 LPA. The top recruiters here are L&T, Wipro, Infosys, and many more. My course jobs are mostly tied to government positions. In my branch, internships occur during the 3rd year or 4th year.

Quality education, no placements, proper labs, good library, small campus.

Placements: I'm a student of M.Sc. Chemistry Batch 2024-25 in MCM DAV College, KANGRA. There are 52 students in our batch, and admission is based on the Entrance Marks conducted by Himachal Pradesh University, Shimla. There's no placement scheme in our college. It provides proper practical knowledge along with theoretical knowledge and offers international conferences every year.

Faculty is good, especially BBA's, but the main college faculty can find them quite rude.

Placements: There's a low chance that you will get placement if the competition is very high. If you don't have any skills nowadays, then it's a waste of time. The course is good, but you need additional skills too. Only getting a degree won't work. No internship programme in college is provided by them.

It is an affordable government college, but placement opportunities are limited.

Placements: The highest package is 6.2 LPA, and the average package is 3.7 LPA. A total of 45 students out of 58 offers get placed. Ten companies visited the campus for recruitment. Some of the top recruiters include Amazon, Flipkart, ICICI Bank, and Tata Capital. I could not find reliable public statistics on the percentage of B.A. students who get internships, the companies they intern with, or the typical stipend.

Professors were amazing, helpful, polite, and recommended.

Placements: No one got placed. No placements were available for this course. Students just got a degree with good marks. Which made them really good in their subject, thanks to the dedication of the professors. They were really punctual in their work and never missed any classes.
