Mixed experience in the college. Faculty is nice.
Placements: More internship opportunities for students are shared via college. Campus placements are almost nil, especially for B.Sc. home science. We had struggled with internships and getting our LOC signed by the director. Mostly the option is for higher education like pursuing an MBA or M.Sc. in the course. Teachers do not help much with career counseling sessions.
Infrastructure: Labs are equipped with appropriate and needed technology. In labs, space isn't enough to accommodate the whole class and many students get left behind due to it. Some classrooms are spacious but some are way too clustered that there's suffocation.
Faculty: Teachers focus only on some specializations but not all, which feels very biased. Faculty and curriculum are nice. Exams are conducted aptly. Teachers are well-educated and teach interestingly. Notes and previous year's questions are provided simultaneously. Doubts are open to be cleared. Even internal exams and practicals are conducted fairly.
Other: You're left to fend off for yourself so be wise.

Good facilities are available in the college like each other are very helpful.
Placements: Many students got placed in the placement cell. There is a placement cell in the college. The highest salary package offered is around 1 LPA - 6 LPA. Many top companies visit our college for placements. Many students got their internal top roles offered by the college. There are five departments in the college of home science.
Infrastructure: There are no hostel facilities in the college. Wi-Fi is available for students. Our classrooms are in good condition. Libraries have books and PYQs. They have air conditioners. The college is accredited by NAAC A ++. Sports and games are available in the college. A canteen provides good food. Medical facilities are available.
Faculty: Teachers are very helpful and well-qualified. The teaching quantity is very good and helpful. They provide notes and books. The course curriculum is relevant. There are 5 departments like communication, human development, resource management, fashion fabric, and food science. Semester exams are very easy.
Other: I chose this course because I got it in my CSAS Portal. Our course is a B.Sc. in home science. There are 5 departments. There is a fest named Society Fest. It is held every year. We have a good campus and crowd. Extracurricular activities are held.

The college is decent, faculty is helpful. Overall experience was nice.
Placements: The college do not provide any placements for B.Sc. Honours Biochemistry students. None of the student from our batch got placed. Most of them opted either higher education or are preparing for government exams. There is an placement cell but they are not that active.
Infrastructure: The campus is very small. There are two blocks in total. Labs are good, washrooms are clean but some classrooms are big dirty. There is not enough space in Conference room. The canteen is decent. Although the food doesn't taste that good. A lot of network issues are there.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful. They can help to solve our doubts if we ask them but they don't teach properly. Most of the time classes got cancelled due to the availability of teachers or sometimes they are too busy. They teach mostly from the ppts or their own study material.

Diverse learning, vibrant campus, helpful faculty; needs curriculum update and inclusivity.
Placements: Around 50% of students pursued higher education, while the other 50% took up jobs or internships. The highest and the lowest package varied depending on individual skills, as only a small percentage participated in placements. Top recruiting companies included food and nutrition giants like Tops India and Coca-Cola. All students undertook internships in their final year to gain practical experience.
Infrastructure: The college is small and lacks a large campus, but it provides essential facilities. Wi-Fi is available but works only in certain areas. Labs are well-equipped for all specializations, including food and nutrition, human development, and communication, with necessary tools and standardized resources. The library is spacious, with a separate reading room and three computer labs (for UG, PG, and faculty). There is no hostel; students arrange their accommodation independent. The canteen serves hygienic, nutritious food, monitored by food and nutrition students. Sports facilities include a gym, badminton and basketball courts, yoga, and activities like Judo and Taekwondo.
Faculty: The faculty is helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable, providing notes sufficient for exams. Serious preparation even a week before exams can result in good marks. While some teachers integrated new industry-relevant examples, the course curriculum feels outdated and requires update to align with modern industrial needs. Exams are not very difficult, and about 85?95% of students pass comfortable, often scoring well with diligent effort.
Other: I chose this course due to my marks and my parents' advice. Despite initial doubts, I appreciated the diversity of topics beyond food, such as human development, psychology, economics, and Human Physiology which made the course engaging. However, the course needs inclusivity, as both gender should study it to break stereotypes. College life was vibrant, with frequent events, a lively crowd, scholarships, and ample extracurricular activities, making the experience truly memorable.

Honest truth about "IHE" University of Delhi.
Placements: I am currently in my 3rd year in Journalism. Placement in our college is quite poor; we have to search for the best suitable internships and upskill from outside. They will just mark you if you have done an internship on your own in the past. The college doesn't provide basic internship opportunities either. A few internships are given, but they are not useful because they require a graduate degree.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is good but not great. Our college has a basic red-bricked building with 2 blocks, each having three floors, and has amenities like a basketball court, badminton court, amphitheater, foyer, canteen, a well-organized radio room, printing machines, a stationary shop, and a beautiful garden.
Faculty: Faculty members are helpful. Some of them are arrogant and rude, and they don't help students well. The teachers are average, but the guest lecturers are good in their research and teaching. Their teaching methods are good, and they are well aware of the news and updates from overseas. Exams have 3 modes: internals, practicals, and the board exam.
Other: Overall, the college is good but not worth the money because it has poor chairs and desks. The fees are much higher than those of other colleges for my course, yet they fail to provide us with basic amenities like projectors, cameras, microphones, or even benches or chairs.

Absolutely dissatisfied because of placement.
Placements: There are no placement opportunities or internships available for our course, you only receive a degree. College does not provides because we don't get specialisation in are 3 year graduation. Internship regarding our course. And college does provide internship to other course students.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure here is not very good. The college campus is much smaller compared to other colleges in DU. When it comes to facilities, they are average. The Wi-Fi works decently, but the network exception is poor. However, for the home Science course, there are good labs and classrooms.
Faculty: The teacher are very knowledgeable, but some can be a little bit rude and strict. Additional, some faculty members provide notes, while others do not. This course is relevant for students who want to pursue careers in fashion and textile, food and nutrition, human resources management, and communication development and extension fields. The semester exam are not too difficult to pass, you can easily score well if you study. The passing marks are 36%.
