      College Infrastructure

      Very big campus but average infrastructure. The classroom that was allocated to us for sociology masters was below average. It was a small, shabby room without any windows. Canteen food was not tasty and the washroom was pathetic.

      Academics

      Academics was good but very bulky syllabus. Few teachers taught really well but few were really boring. Overall, I felt the syllabus should have been more interesting. But I enjoyed the research work very much.

      Placements

      Placement was offered but those were not promising. Various companies came with internships and job offers but none offered good package. Also there was an absence of career guidance. It is really difficult to explore career paths in our own.

      College Infrastructure

      The infrastructure is good but could be improved. With the fees that they take, they should have air conditioned classrooms which they don't. Maintenance of college properties is an issue- regular cleaning is not done for the classrooms and washrooms. The good thing though, is the canteen which provides a wide variety of food options at affordable prices, and they have smart classrooms, with LED projectors which is also helpful.

      Academics

      I am studying English Honours and the faculty in the college is very student friendly. The curriculum follows the CBCS module and the syllabus is interesting and well updated. What I study doesn't make me entirely job-ready, but it gives a good opportunity to learn the things that I am interested in and which can be applied later for further studies or research.

      Placements

      The placement is good. However personally, my course isn't very placement oriented because students usually go for their masters instead of direct jobs. But for the other departments like Bcom or Engineering, the placement rate is high.
