I am satisfied with the multidimensional atmosphere of the university.
Placements: Almost 20% of the students got placed. The minimum salary offered is Rs. 20,000-30,000 per month. Private companies were the top recruiters. Our course was not professional, so there was no internship. We have to go through Net-UGC exam for further opportunities or should opt for B.Ed course.
Infrastructure: Our department was airy and spacious. There were an air-conditioned seminar room and facility of a projector for presentations. There was a spacious library for students. Hostel rooms were airy and spacious, and there was a Wi-Fi facility in the whole campus. Mess facility was satisfactory.
Faculty: Faculty members of our college were very cooperative and highly knowledgeable. They gave students a holistic development to grow and nurture themselves with academic and co-curricular activities. They are still in contact with us to help us in our future endeavours. Students are ready to work in the academic field but not industry-ready.

Department of geography review.
Placements: No placement of any courses. Faculty is not bothered about students. They just need their salery. No placement for disaster management or remote sensing or geography. They create publicity that they have 100 percent placement but that's all fake. Forget about placement if you are thinking about it.
Infrastructure: Old building with leaked roof during rain season. AC for teachers only. No one cares about how students live during hot summer days. Washrooms are dirty and broken. No ome look after complaints of students. Paint is also very old. No proper place for use of projectors.
Faculty: Top in its courses in India. But lots of politics among teachers. No proper communication among teachers. Administration is too slow. They don't care about the problems of the students. Students have to do their work on their own. Teachers are also non cooperative.
Other: Good canteen with awesome tea. Nice library.
