    Q:   How successful is the placement cell in securing jobs for B.A. students at VMOU Kota?

    A: 
    {Source: B.A. students & alumni}

    Success Rate of Placement Cell for B.A. Students

    Based on the provided reviews and feedback from students and alumni, here's an overview of the success rate of the placement cell for B.A. students at VMOU Kota:

    * Limited Information: Unfortunately, there is limited information available regarding the placement cell's performance for B.A. students. None of the reviewed statements explicitly discuss the placement cell's achievements or challenges specifically for B.A. students.
    * General Feedback: However, some general comments on the overall effectiveness of the university's career services may be inferred. For instance, while reviewing the faculty and infrastructure, a few students mentioned that the faculty is helpful and understands the students' concerns, but did not directly comment on the placement cell's performance.

    As a result, we cannot accurately determine the success rate of the placement cell for B.A. students at VMOU Kota due to insufficient data and indirect mentions. Further research would be required to gather more specific information about the placement cell's performance for B.A. students.

    Good placements and opportunities
    Infrastructure: In terms of infrastructure, VMOU is one of the best colleges in the country matching international standards. It is one of the few colleges in the University of Delhi which has upgraded its classrooms to facilitate teaching through modern tools and techniques. The college has centrally air-conditioned classrooms with Wi-Fi-enabled LCD projectors, tutorial rooms, a library, a state-of-the-art seminar room, and a fully equipped auditorium with a seating capacity of over 750 persons.
    Faculty: The course curriculum is useful and prescribed by Delhi University, which was standard in all colleges. The faculty of this college is great as the teachers are well qualified and some have done Ph.D. Faculty members in our college are helpful, and understanding, and always motivate students to be enthusiastic about their work. The best thing is you can go to any faculty any time and ask any of your doubt, and they'll try their best to resolve it.
    Other: I like the course, so that's why I have chosen to take this. In this institution, the student-faculty ratio was not good. Less than 30 faculty members are there for 8000 students, and some other guest faculty are there to manage. Here the faculty qualification is good because all have passed out from different institutions like IITs, NITS, etc. With different degrees like Ph.D., M Tech, MS, etc. The term exams will be conducted every month and the pass ratio is only 70 percent. It is tough to pass the exams.
