Really good infrastructure, facilities and education.
Placements: Approximately half of the students are enrolled in my course. The government provides internships, with the highest salary offered being 12 Lacs per annum. Upon graduation in philosophy, students have the option to pursue their Masters, teaching, or prepare for civil services due to the extensive subject matter available.
Infrastructure: Despite having excellent facilities, Miranda House does have a few exceptions. The Wi-Fi connection is not very reliable due to range issues, and there are some classrooms where the ACs are not functioning properly. However, the overall experience is still positive as the food is exceptional, washrooms are well-maintained, and timely medical facilities are provided. Additionally, the support for sports and games is commendable.
Faculty: The faculty at Miranda House possesses excellent qualifications and offers invaluable assistance. They are known for their friendly demeanor and provide ample reading resources. The curriculum is highly relevant and easily comprehensible. The semester exams are of moderate difficulty, with a pass percentage set at 40%.
Other: The reason I opted for philosophy is because it embodies the pursuit of wisdom. This course has broadened my understanding of the world and beyond. One of the greatest advantages of my course is its ability to foster open-mindedness. However, I believe my course could have been enhanced if the college retained guest lecturers as permanent teachers, as they possess exceptional teaching skills. Additionally, our college offers commendable scholarship opportunities and student exchange programs, such as the one in Amsterdam. The campus itself is vast, picturesque, and adorned with lush greenery and beautiful flowers. Moreover, we have numerous societies that excel in extracurricular activities.

Review of Miranda House, University of Delhi.
Placements: It is a new course. Our batch has 20 students. This course has a good scope. They teach us very less, because research work is not much lucrative in our country. Many students opted for a master's degree or competitive exams.
Infrastructure: Our college has one of the best infrastructures. Many movie shootings are held in our college. Our college has 5 canteens. The food served in the canteen is good and healthy. Classrooms are non-air-conditioned.
Faculty: Our faculty members are qualified, but many of them lack effective teaching skills. Philosophy is a vast subject, and discouraging students from asking questions and engaging in healthy debates defeats the purpose of the subject. The exams are challenging, as they require students to memorise the elaborate text.

It ranked NIRF top 1, with awesome infrastructure and quality education.
Placements: A lot of students get placed with the help of the Placement Cell Society of Miranda House. You get to work as an intern or even get placed based on your performance with big incorporate giant companies such as Amazon, Kashware, Microsoft, Google, and many more. There are many job roles like content writing, video editor, policy researcher, social worker, fundraiser, digital marketing, HR trainee, business development, brand marketing, research and branding, content production etc. Big companies offer 10,000-20,000 stipends, whereas startups may only provide certificates or up to 5,000 stipends. Approximately 40% of students from my course are working as interns in companies like Quantel, APLI, Ifortis etc.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi is available, but sometimes, it causes inconvenience since it fluctuates and connectivity is quite poor. AC in the library isn't quite functioning, which is disappointing as one should be able to read without any distractions, but the heat makes it unbearable. Classrooms are in fine condition.
Faculty: Some teachers are really student-friendly and that makes them approachable for any doubts. The teachers in Miranda are super qualified in their fields. Every course curriculum in Miranda makes a student industry-ready since Miranda not only focuses on academics but also on shaping a student's skills in all aspects. Semester exams are quite tough but manageable to pass.
Other: Honestly, I chose Philosophy because I wanted to study at Miranda. It was college over the course for me. But now that I'm enjoying the subject, even though it's challenging. The fun thing about studying Philosophy is that there is no right or wrong answer, and it allows you to see things from so many perspectives. If teachers wouldn't always focus on theory and take the students out on excursions related to the subject to get a better knowledge and create a fun learning environment for learning, I think that would improve the understanding capability of the students a lot. As they say, fests in Miranda House are the best. You get to dance your stress off, enjoy delicious foods, witness cultures and talents, enjoy visiting stalls with your friends, and meet celebrities. The beautiful green lawns with flowers are everything. You can lie down and enjoy its beauty.

Other: I opted for this course because it is relevant to my Christianity and also it gives and makes students explore the world wide views. It makes sense for sure and it is best for gaining knowledge. Events and fests are good and I love the fests more and every fest is more important and students celebrate all the fests for sure.
