Diploma in Science - Batch of 2025

Offered by Quaid-E-Millath Government College For Women

4.2

I respectfully appreciate my college for providing proper education and excellent teaching.

Placements: It is only Tele-calling and sales companies. There is no big brand company or any other, so they need to improve the placement cell and offer more job opportunities. They should also send students for internships so they can gain more experience and knowledge.

Infrastructure: It is an old college, so its infrastructure is old-fashioned and moderate. The library is good, but the classroom roofs are not in good condition and sometimes leak. The new buildings are very good, but they need to build more bathrooms and install Wi-Fi.

Faculty: Teachers are well-trained and have completed their Ph.D. degrees, so they are very professional. Their teaching skills are excellent, and the course subjects are good. Not only major subjects, but they also include other subjects and computer classes. There are many other co-curricular activities as well.

Other: Physics is a tough subject, so I take it because it has good scope in the future. I am an NCC cadet, and I attend many events.
