My review about this college.
Placements: Value-based higher education was the aim of the college. There was the department of placement. They provided great opportunities to their students. There were internships for the students to grow. They also provided jobs and placements for their students. Many firms come and recruit students. Many students take part in the placement program and enhance their skills.
Infrastructure: The course was among one of the oldest offered by the university which was a plus as the department was well-established. The course was well researched. The course was well designed to fulfill the needs of an M.A. program. The food was good, the water was available non-stop but electricity was sometimes going off. You had to apply to get into the hostel for girls hostel. It was very difficult to get into the first year as compared to boy hostels.
Faculty: Former faculty members were alumni from prestigious universities like Cambridge University. Faculty members had received Padmashree Award, Fulbright Fellowship, Chancellor, Overseas Non-President Award, and also faculty consisting of writers, poets, and critics. Great sources of inspiration were always there. Like to study the distribution of population and resources in different regions on the earth's surface as well as the case and its effect on both man-made and natural occurrences. Teachers were also very good and excellent at teaching. The course was very interesting if we liked to study, it was not difficult to pass.
Other: We could apply for the scholarships but the college did not provide scholarships for students. We had to apply it online through NSP.
