Satisfied with the college faculty and the opportunities provided. hostel facilities are not so good
Placements: Placements in this course are not available. But as this subject provides vast knowledge in the area of administration one can work in public sector as an administrator after qualifying civil service exams. Or one can go the NET exam to get admission in Ph.D. or one can work in education department also.
Infrastructure: Campus is very large with beautiful buildings. Well maintained gardens and their flora is very attractive. Specifically cleanliness is what I liked the most. Classrooms are big with comfortable, well sitting arrangement. Food service of the college is best. There are different food corners providing Indian food as well as fast food at affordable price.
Faculty: Teachers are very supportive and motivate students to learn daily new things- not only academic. Their friendly nature and way of teaching enables us to understand more. Regular power point presentation and surveys conducted by students give deep knowledge about the topic.
Other: Here students are given opportunities to show their talent in areas like arts, dancing, singing, Indore/outdoor games, musics and many more by arranging regular tournaments and cultural programs where popular personalities also joins. Students from India as well as from abroad also get admission here.
