Sports and game tournaments are held regularly.
Faculty: The teaching quality in the physics department is very good. Teachers are knowledgeable and qualified senior professors, but they are not very helpful. The course curriculum is good but lengthy. Semester exams are difficult and if you score well in sessions, then it can help for finals.

Life at AMU through my eyes
Placements: Well, since I opted for a B.Sc. course, you do not get much placement. Instead of focusing on placements, the institute emphasizes increasing your passion for the subject. After that, you may become a professor, researcher, or teacher, depending on your choice, but placement opportunities in B.Sc. are almost negligible.
Infrastructure: You will get a girls' campus if you are opting for the B.Sc. course at AMU, so do not expect gender diversity. The buildings are quite old, and there are issues with electricity and water. However, you will find campus amenities such as shops, gyms, libraries, a swimming pool, and a sports club. Many festivals are organized from time to time, so there's plenty to explore.
Faculty: The faculty is well-experienced and educated, highly knowledgeable, and very helpful in guiding you for your future studies or plans. It is important to maintain a healthy relationship with them and be active in class to make the most of the opportunities available.
Other: There are a lot of scholarships available, so you can check them out.

Review of B.Sc. (physics) department, Aligarh Muslim University.
Placements: 30–40% of students get placed in research programs as well as in companies too. The highest package is something around INR 10–12 lacs per annum, and the lowest is around INR 5–6 lpa. The top recruiters are Wipro, Isro, Drdo, PW, and many other companies and institutes too. The internship is based on your GPA. If you score well, you have this internship opportunity from these companies.
Infrastructure: The facilities at the university are amazing. Different types of books are available to read at the Maulana Azad Library. It is not recommended to buy books from outside the quality of the food; the canteen is okay; the classrooms are teach-enabled; the facilities in the hostel are subject to notice; sometimes the food isn't given properly; and the rooms were not allowed at the time.
Faculty: The curriculum is designed on the latest pattern, and yes, it is relevant to making students industry-ready. The portion that lacks physical knowledge is good, but professors only focus on the theory portion. The pass percentage is 33%–40% in the semester as well as sessional.
