Master of Planning in Regional Planning - Batch of 2023

Overall best college for Master of Planning in Regional Planning course.
Placements: Nearly 93% of respondents to this poll had sent 16 LPA to prestigious business consulting firms, including IBI Group, AECOM India, and Egis India. Five members of my cohort were less willing to demonstrate that they had their own career aspirations, while 25 out of 30 LPA had contributed. About 95% of my senior batch was placed. A lot of students were given internships. Urban designer and transportation planner were among the top positions.
Infrastructure: Our campus was really large downtown. It provided excellent bus and metro connections. We could concentrate on our observations and projects in our classrooms. There were lots of books at the library that could teach us about other subjects. Students got access to hotel amenities.
Faculty: Teachers were incredibly polite, modest, and helpful. They were knowledgeable, skilled, and excellent at explaining ideas. This was the best in terms of education, and technology was compatible with education. We may claim that semester examinations were tricky to average, depending on how well students prepared. Around 70% of them pass.

Bachelor of Planning - Batch of 2027

The best college if you want to enjoy your college life; it's well-diversified.
Placements: Post like town planner, country planner, and transport planner, and also the placements can be in many government offices and as well as private offices. The highest and the lowest package according to me in my college for the private sector is like 6 LPA to 10 LPA. The companies like IPE Global, Hitachi Vantara, LASA, L&T, DDA, DTC, DMRC, and ISRO.
Infrastructure: When we talk about the facilities on the campus, to be honest, we don’t even have proper classrooms and our building is so weak that we don’t even know when it will collapse. There are no proper drinking water facilities and we don’t have a strong Wi-Fi connection, not even good teaching boards and no good projectors for projecting digital works. But the only good thing on campus is the Nescafe and the canteen from where we can get good food, but still, they impose very high prices on us. There is no hostel on campus, it’s 10 km away.
Faculty: The teachers are very helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is completely good with the completely experienced faculty. When we come to the course curriculum, it is so advanced that when we compare it with other colleges, it is 6 months advanced and it will definitely make students ready for the future. The semester exam is not that difficult. Every ordinary student can pass it and the pass percentage is 95%.
Other: I chose this course because I got this admission in an institute of national importance and there is no scope for the software in the future, so I just want to try something new. The best thing about this course is that it will also give us a chance to get government jobs. When we talk about life in SPA DELHI, it is completely unique from others: the activities, cultural events, the diversity in the college, the extracurricular activities, the festivals celebrated, the bond between seniors and juniors, and the different culture of the college make it special.
