Course Curriculum Overview

5

I choosed the course because of my interest in electrical and the faculty of electrical is very supportive about innovations and experiments, the curriculum here is based on the new education policy, they also teach financial literacy and english fluency which prepares you for the real world , they could improve the syllabus little bit ,it is slightly outdated . The midsem exams will be around mid October and end sem exam will be around mid December

Fees and Financial Aid

The fees is around 235k per year which is going to be 259k next year as per the fee structure, and there is fee waiver scheme in which the fee concession can be availed on the basis of annual income of parents , 50% fee concession is offered when the annual income is between 4 to 8 lakhs , 90% fee concession is offered if annual income is less than 4 lakhs , you have to submit some documents as per the bulletin of information that is released by college every year

Campus Life

3

The annual fest conducted here is named spandan which is a cultural fest which is generally held in February. The books facility is very good as we have the access of central library. Technological provisions are not that much high level there is only a projector , sports facilities is also not that much good , du sports council is not that much active , some senior students are creating clubs and societies as the college is new , so it will take time to establish and it's impact on student life is not that much good

Admission

As a student in the Electrical Engineering program at the Faculty of Technology (FOT), Delhi University, my decision to choose this college was based on a combination of academic ambition, the university's esteemed reputation, and the promising curriculum of the newly introduced B.Tech course. The factors that influenced my choice over other institutions, such as Delhi Technological University (DTU) and Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT), were primarily the DU brand name, the practical curriculum, and the more attainable admission criteria for my rank. Comparison with other colleges My college search led me to apply for admission to some of Delhi's premier technical institutions, including DTU and NSUT. Curriculum: FOT’s B.Tech curriculum was a significant draw. The program, designed under the New Education Policy, offers a strong balance of theoretical knowledge and practical, hands-on lab sessions using modern equipment. This contrasts with the sometimes older syllabi found at established institutions. Reviews of DTU, for instance, note a decent but not exceptional curriculum for electrical engineering, with some difficult exams and strict passing criteria. FOT's updated labs, featuring expensive and new equipment, were also a compelling factor. Infrastructure and Campus Life: This is an area where FOT currently lags behind. While DTU and NSUT have well-established, sprawling campuses with extensive facilities and vibrant student life, FOT's classes are currently conducted in a temporary building within the DU North Campus. The new permanent building is under construction, and until its completion, dedicated campus life, including hostels, sports facilities, and events, is limited. However, FOT's location on the larger DU North Campus still provides access to a diverse student body and a broader university atmosphere. Placements

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because of my keen interest in chemistry. The ratio of faculty members and students is quite good. Most of the faculty members are highly qualified and all of them have a very good sense of teaching. Exams are held periodically within a month mostly. And the difficulty of the exam mostly depends on the course material and its structure.

Placement Experience:

The placements here are good for circuital branches. Some of them get good packages of 1-2cr while the rest of us from non circuital branches have no hope and no core opportunities. Around 500 companies visit every year. Campus placements take place after the 7th semester I think. Almost all students get placement here or have other goals like MBA, UPSC, etc. I have no plans after getting a degree. Also here software, as well as consulting companies, come.

Students sit for placements in the second last semester, and the opportunities are aplenty, with multiple companies coming to take students. The average package is around 12L, and high placements are only available for quant roles open only for Comp Sci and Maths students. Not all students get a placement, though, but 90% do.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course due to what I was getting according to my rank. The faculty-student ratio is great around 1:5, small class size for lectures. Tutorials and labs have a more intimate ratio as well. Qualification of faculty is pretty good since most have done Ph.D. from foreign universities and a lot of them have very good teaching styles although some have poor communication skills. But all of them are willing to listen and answer questions. We have very regular exams and are relatively alright to pass although first-year exams are quite difficult.
