Review of Distance Education Department, Punjabi University.
Placements: Placements in our college are average. The minimum salary package offered is 2 LPA, which is not sufficient for a student, in my opinion. Mostly local companies hire the students who get graduated from this course. Overall, placements are not up to the mark.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is good. Classrooms are cleaned every day. Cleaning staff takes good care of cleanliness. Wi-Fi facility is available with good speed. The library is quite big and has a sufficient amount of books as per demand. Hostel rooms are small, but it is well maintained. Food served in the mess is average. Sports and a lot of games are provided by the university which students can choose as per their choice.
Faculty: Faculty members in our college are good. They are well qualified and clear every doubt of the students. History and political science faculty are the best, in my opinion, because their teaching methods clear our doubts very easily. They conduct a sufficient amount of assignments and develop students skills.
Other: Our university provides scholarship to the deserving students who score the best in exams.
