    This is a decent university.
    Placements: In this college, not many companies visit campus as our seniors are struggling for getting jobs. Companies are not taking a serious interest in taking interviews. If students are brilliant, then they can find a solution to get over it.
    Infrastructure: The hostel is good and the fees levied are also as per the standard of hostel facilities. It provides free Wi-Fi, whole daylight, and a pleasant environment. Facilities in the course are not attractive, air-conditioners are not working, and lights are also not working properly in this college.
    Faculty: Faculty members are average. There are two types of faculty members, one is permanent other is a guest. The guest teacher is not as per with permanent. Students have to pay more attention to self-study. But students have power to replace the teachers which they do not like.
    Other: In this college, fests, get-togethers, abhiyanjanaa, and sports days are conducted.

    It is the best government university in greater Noida.
    Placements: There were around 50 students in our batch but as it was bachelor's of arts in political science students did not got placements.
    Infrastructure: The whole university has centralised air-conditioner, one big central library, and one 24X7 library for hostel students, the classroom also has centralised air-conditioner, smart board, blackboard. I did not stay in the hostel as it was not compulsory for our course but the hostel and mess of each hostel were very good, and the quality of food was average. There was a separate department for medical facilities but there was no pharmacy in it. For sports, there were games like basketball and badminton court, football court, volleyball court, cricket stadium, hockey court, etc.
    Faculty: There were qualified teachers i.e all were Ph.D. holders from JNU, our HOD organised national seminars each year in which various renowned scholars from different parts of the country came and shared with students their knowledge on the topics current as well as static. The course curriculum was very relevant it was according to the present syllabus followed by Delhi University.
