Really a good college which has a good campus and faculty members.
Placements: There are a total of more than 150 students in BA (Hons.) English, which are divided into two sections, and there are various opportunities for students to get the internship, and out of 150, 93 or 94 students got internships, which is a large number. There are various roles offered in the course, like digital marketing, copywriting, journalism, translation, publishing, law, teaching, HR executive, mass communication, scriptwriting, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure for the whole college is the same, where it provides Wi-Fi, 2 libraries, and labs for different purposes. Along with this, all classrooms are well furnished. There's no hostel facility in the college, but there are various PGs within 1 km of the college for 4k-5k per month.
Faculty: Teachers are excellent in their respective subjects; along with this, they have knowledge of other fields also, which they share with students. The teachers not only teach about books but also about how to be a good human, how to live life, etc. The semester exams are held in two parts, and it's not too difficult to get passed in the examination.
Other: The course B.A. (Hons.) English is not only for getting jobs or getting settled in life, but it teaches us our literature and knowledge about our culture; also, it develops communication skills, and overall, it's a very nice course to be chosen.

Partially satisfied with my experience.
Placements: There were no placements for B.A. English course in our college. Although, they were good for commerce students. There was no internship offered, but there was an exchange programme offered for 1 month in Finland. The process for selection was not good, as the whole class didn't get aware about it and the decision was made internal.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average for a DU college. The new building is nicely built with enough facilities available like there is a proper ventilation in the classrooms with fans working which is lacking in the old building. There is no hostel available. The canteen has good food at affordable prices.
Faculty: Faculty overall, was nice. Some of them were not. The faculty of Romantic literature used to just read from the books and dictate us notes. The teacher of Paradise lost was great, she reference well from the background. The curriculum is fine for the students pursuing higher studies, otherwise, it's not. The exam are easy to pass, if you study well throughout the year.
Other: I chose this course because I had interests in books. The best thing about the course is you get to know history with literature perspective.

Better than what people preserve, improved in all the departments.
Placements: There are placement and recruitment cells that conduct their drives once in a while where you can apply and give interviews for further job opportunities. Regularly also some companies and brands do come for internships. On average, the package ranges from Rs. 4-5 Lacs per annum and can range above and beyond. Not all students nowadays look for college internships as now you can look for them on other websites and apps that everyone is aware of.
Infrastructure: The college is NAAC credited A+ college so the infrastructure is really good. Though all these developments have been done in recent times they are working on it. The college is far better than what people will preserve, the library has also been recently developed as well as classrooms have been re-painted and labs are comparatively not that good. There are no hostels on the college campus, the canteen has a lot of variety and is all vegetarian food. Hockey is famous in our college in terms of games.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful and they are always if you need any help. Even the societies are handled by teacher supervisors they are involved in almost everything. The teachers are well-qualified and they know what they are doing. The course is set up by Delhi University so it is common to all. Passing semester exams depends on the preparation because it is a centralised paper, if you have studied then you will pass the exams.
Other: I chose, this course specifically because I was interested in studying literature. If you are into novels, and critical analysis then this course is for you. There are things that now that I am in 2nd year would like to improve as our course is still very much based upon British poetry and Drama and comparatively there are less core papers on Indian writings. Moreover, each semester there are at least 10 novels in our course and the semester is barely for 3-4 months which is very less time to have a deep knowledge about the novels. Some various events and fests happen on an everyday basis in our college.

Shyam Lal might not be what you think.
Placements: The placement is not quite good for English Hons. There is a placement cell and there was a placement fair too but only f you belong to one of commerce or Science courses. As for the students of English we found no company suitable to our course. But overall many people found placements.
Infrastructure: Infra is nice and warm. We have a canteen, quite big grounds to play and rest and there is immense greenery. You can find different types flowers everywhere. A parking lot is available too. There are computer labs and Science labs and the office staff is helpful too.
Faculty: The curriculum and faculty were amazing and helped us grow. The syllabus is set to expand our knowledge base and our teachers are quite helpful. The teachers guided us for our future career and provided us extra knowledge in regards to the syllabus provided in the course.
Other: We have many societies and cultural clubs. It is a lively college.
