Remarks

Shivaji College is one of the constituent colleges of the University of Delhi. The college has been accredited with a grade ‘A’ by NAAC DBT-sponsored star college scheme. The Principal of the college is Prof. Shiv Kumar Sehdev. The college has a huge campus and a separate sports complex and provides a good academic environment along with the doors open to one’s hobbies and interests. The college is a good choice for students who want to pursue a career in the science field. The college has got five science departments that include the Department of Chemistry, Botany, Zoology, Physics, and Biochemistry. Among them, the Department of Chemistry, Zoology, Botany, and Biochemistry are sponsored by the DBT Star college scheme. The college highly works on skills and knowledge other than the course work. The college has got well-equipped labs and hard-working lab staff. These departments also organize summer training programs, hands-on workshops, and interactive talk sessions with some renowned professors in the science field.

Course Curriculum Overview

Exams are held after every 5 months and the level of the exam is quite good. Whereas it's not difficult to pass the exam for student who study, it varies from person to person. But after all the hard work teachers do to make us understand the concept it's not very hard to atleast pass the exams.

Class Size: 20Course Fees: INR 62970 per year

Placement Experience

Students are eligible for internships from the very first semester whereas having a placement with at least a bachelor's degree or graduation is a prerequisite. Highest package - 5lpa average package - 3.6 lpa. ICICI, Zomato, India skill capital, growth arrow etc 65% students get placement on an average. My plan after getting my bachelor's degree is to do masters from a good institute.

Fees and Financial Aid

The fee structure is quite high as far as government colleges are considered but the quality of education and facilities we get is worth it. The college offers many scholarships having different criteria.

Campus Life

Dislikes

Student often get used to bad habits like smoking and drinking
To many protests everyone is doing protest even for the smallest inconvenience
Some teachers doesn't complete the syllabus they left it and students have to study on their own

Dream college or not ?

Likes

Greenery of college campus and surrounding areas
Close metro access and other basic amenities
Diverse crowd which allows good exposure overall

Dislikes

Wifi Network is slow and not available at all places in campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

Life science includes zoology botany and chemistry considering this combo I think the study material is quite okay in terms of topics chemistry connects school teaching with one step ahead learning . Zoology provides new insights on various topics . Botany covers deeper understanding of syllabus . So overall it's good . Hands on lab work meets the demand of the subject . Also the topics taught match with the type of questions asked in exam. Difficulty level i would say it's moderate for botany and zoology but for chemistry is quite tough. Time management is a much needed skill for examination purpose. For course curriculum i would say more focus on current situation should be laid rather than history .

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.
