Review of IGNOU - Indira Gandhi National Open University.

Faculty: In this course, the final exam is held once a year. Professors also conduct tests once a week. We also get complete information regarding all the chapters. Teachers always clarify our doubts. Semester exams are conducted very well.

Blessed to be in this college.

Placements: I'm doing my Masters in political Science from Lakshmibai College. You can get good placement and internship from a reputed company that will help you gain amazing experience, but for that, you have to clear the exam that the companies hold. My friend cleared that exam and got a good package.

Infrastructure: Library has a good stock of books. Almost every book related to your course is there except some rare books that you have to buy from outside. The library environment is very quiet and peaceful. Even the canteen is also good, the food is hygienic. The sports facilities are also good even I joined NCC in my graduation. I did graduation and is now doing masters from this college because I like the atmosphere, the classrooms are also big and neat.

Faculty: The teachers will surely help you as they are cooperative and friendly. They have a good knowledge about their streams, so they can guide you very well. Course curriculum is very important because everything you study will help you somewhere and it will make you more intelligent and productive. Political Science is the best subject you can study as it has a good scope in future. Exams may seem difficult if you didn't study and easy too if you have studied well as everything comes from the course curriculum. To ace the exams, don't skip the lectures as they will be very helpful.

Other: Crowd is not very large as Lakshmibai college is little far or aside from the north campus. It is little quiet which is a very good place to study than in a crowded college. So, I enjoyed the surroundings full of peace and greenery. Events and fests are getting improved year by year, the college is working on it for the students.

Top roles offered by the course are public policy expert and political analysis. You can work as a professor or teacher in future.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is overall good here. Classrooms and labs are well-equipped. A good space is also available to play. Wi-Fi facility and freshwater are also available here. The good thing is that our university provides you with options to choose any college as a study centre.

Faculty: Teachers here are very cooperative, helpful and knowledgeable. Their teaching quality is also good. Exams are not very difficult if you study sincerely throughout the year. The course curriculum is also relevant. Only 55% of marks are required to pass the exam.

Other: The best thing about this course is that this subject is very common in all competitive exams, so you can prepare while studying. The syllabus is beautifully designed. Scholarships are also provided by the industry.
