PGDAV College, B.Sc {Hons.}, Computer Science

Remarks

The admission process was easy. I first see the cutoffs of every college but due to the general category, i only get PGDAV The Great. I did not apply for any quota as a general category but i was a state-level basketball player still. Admission criteria is very easy as you apply for pgdav college and once your admission is approved and after paying fees you have to just call your college and get your roll no . and after that, the classes starts.No counseling was there everything was very easy i even do not think it to be so easy. All process was online.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

As I am interested in COMPUTER SCIENCE so i choose B.Sc. Hons CS and it also opens a scope for future opportuities also. Talking about the student-teacher ratio is low as there are alot of students in the college. Faculty is the best clears each and every doubt and explains deeply and also faculty of PGDAV college is rated at the top 10 college faculties of DU. Most of the faculty are PHD holders and M.Sc holder. The exams are as per DU guidelines and were on time and the level of the paper was good but our teachers made us study as like it is very easy for us I got 8.9 CGPA in the first year.

Class Size: 55Course Fees: INR 48000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

Internships are very good different types of companies are in there for internships and that is good, and there is a different club for internships and placements run by students itself and many students get a chance to get internships in the various companies.

Placement Experience

3.5

placements are significant and are good for science students and who perform well may get high placements and it also offers campus placements and what i think is good around 70 % of students gets placements and it also depends on student per student depending on the packages offered by the companies.The highest is 5.5 lakhs and the lowest 1.7 lakhs

Fees and Financial Aid

cost of the study is normal as per oyher colleges and that is good also as i think. the scholarships are as usual as provided by DU fincial assistance is provided to childrens not able to pay but a long process to go through. There is a lot of opportunities to get placements and internships you get a chance to perform various tasks in 1st year it self. The highest placement is 5.7 lakhs and that is significant also.And average is 2.5 lakhs.

Campus Life

4.5

the annual fest is good.NCC of college is the best in all colleges of DU. Availability of every book is there including course books also and journals also. The college has its big cricket , football,and basketball ground. Overall the campus is medium not so big not so small and recently there is a new building made which is good. There are a lot of clubs in every field which i think is good in itself and its own benifits.

Likes

The College provides great Exposure to everyone.
The Crowd and Societies of the College are always active and energetic.

Dislikes

The whole structure of Admin office is underdeveloped, which utilizes a lot of our precious time.
Many of the College events are ill-organised.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus of Electronics Hons and Electrical Engineering is same but makes it different is how we perceive it. We study the syllabus with theoretical aspects while the engineers with practical aspects. We have a chance to opt for the 4th year, which only comprises of Research. One of the optionals is Generic Elective and if you take GE from same department for all semesters, you will attain a minor degree. The Faculties and whole curriculum is great but the other optionals require improvement. The other optionals only make the Student Life hectic, that stumbles the Student's focus from Course track.

Dislikes

A little bit old infrastructure can a point that is disliked by us and many students. As everyone wants to be a part of a new and good looking college
Lack of hostel facility in the college campus is a major issue. Specially for those students who are not able to accommodate in the Flats/PG due to thier financial status. But the new building will be available with all the facilities within few year

Placement Experience:

Students of 6th sem are eligible for the campus selection process. Our course also have placement programs. Some companies that visit here are TCS, Wipro and few more the no of offers made depend upon the performance of student in the placement cell. The highest package as per my knowledge is 13 lakhs and the average here is 6 lakhs. Sorry for the inconvenience but I don't have any knowledge regarding the job profile given. The placement percentage changes every year depending upon the respective batch. My planning after the course is either placement otherwise my prime goal CSE.

I was given this college on the basis of the score in the CUET Exam which i gave after my 12th. It was a tough exam i would say because compiting with 20 Lac plus students for just a seat in DU is not an easy task. While preparing the prefference sheet and combinations for the college in the admission process was a confusing task. So i select all the cobinations of courses and colleges which i was eligible and then i also select my course and college, but i never thought that i would get it, still though i was happy that i get to study in one of the DU college. I applied to a lot of DU colleges and there courses. I would say it was'nt an easy one, bt still get to study here is a great opportunity....Read More
