Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

The main reason to opt this course was my interest although it has other aspects also like if I have to prepare for competitive examinations and posts under the ministries of government ,like Minister of external affairs, then this course is the best. There should be some debates organised between students although there are presentations but I think debate should be there. The examination should be a little more difficult. Also the question asked are of full length which results in writing everything in exam to meet the required length, so there should be a different pattern having some short questions also.

Internships Opportunities

1

I don't know much as no internships are offered in the college. Although there are some placements offered but only 3-4 students gets it. It is poor in terms of internships and placements. Also there is no focus on this issue by the authorities.

Fees and Financial Aid

The year wise fee for my college is 11715 Rs. But some other DU colleges have higher fees upto 50000 or above. My yearly fees was approx 7500 Rs. but this year university has increased the fee. There is no other fee except the examination form fee which varies according to the courses i.e. from 1500-1700 Rs. Fee structure varies as Bcom course has approximately 14000 Rs as fee. Although there are some incentives in fee for those who cannot afford but there are no scholarships provided in my college.

Campus Life

4.5

Students experience functions and events whole year as different departmental freshers then a complete freshers for all, Then events by students unions , Fest (in Oct-Nov) , farewell of different departments and then a combined farewell. Besides different departmental fest are also organised. Most of the books in Library are old edition and version. Although it has a huge Library with a large variety of books on different papers. There are special courses for sports and they are being promoted. There is a student union elected every year besides there are different cultural societies as well.

Admission

I have applied for other colleges in DU as well and also other universities like B.R. Ambedkar But as this was the best found in Government or state universities so I choose this. I was also offers BR Ambedkar but I didn't like it well as it doesn't have any good colleges besides DU was better in terms of colleges, infrastructure, internships and faculty. The overall admission process is a long one. The admission is only through CUET (Common University Entrance Test). Cutoff didn't play any important role if anyone just want admission in DU but if you want the best college then you have to gain 700 at least (if from 800 , varies on subjects) After the exam candidates have to fill the preference.

Faculty

4.5

Faculty to student ratio is very low. But the faculties are good and anyone can approach them anytime. When I was a fresher they personally helped me a lot. Almost all the faculties are good but some like Prof. Geeta Kaushik and Prof. B.S. Jha are the best. There way of teaching and types of questions they ask between makes the class interesting. There are no such faculty whom I don't like. Some are good and others are okay. Examination are not very tough. Infact they are easy as there is choice in whole paper. I haven't seen anyone who has failed the exam but some got backs in some papers but they clear it second time with ease

Other Applied Colleges

Course Curriculum Overview:

The BA English Honours curriculum at DU SOL is relevant and provides a strong foundation in literature and language. The course covers diverse topics that support academic learning and critical thinking. The flexible structure is suitable for distance-learning students. Adding more practical activities, updated study materials, and interactive learning opportunities could further improve the overall course experience.

Remarks:

Positive : the faculties are good and I could say our college is the meeting place of various cultures ranging from Kerala to jammukashmir Negative: the infrastructure is poor. Labs and libraries are not so good. And there are stray dogs who often steps into classes and make us afraid. College is not fully air conditioned but is on processing.
