The verdict

Worth considering

A pocket-friendly, NAAC ‘A’ graded pick for lit lovers eyeing teaching, research, or content/IT BPM roles. The 45% placement rate and modest average salary mean it’s best if you’re not chasing a high corporate CTC immediately, or if you plan to use this as a launchpad for NET/SET, PhD, or ed-tech gigs.
