Know about my college

They listen to students when it's related to studies, but they don't when it's about canteen food.

Everything in my course is research driven. There are exams thourice a semester and the weightage of each exam is decided by the professor. Subsequent semesters become more and more stressful with more subjects and added submissions like literature reviews, critical reviews, presentations and policy briefs. Last semester is dedicated to Master's thesis. Every course except economics has industrial tours. The curriculum is well planned and if there's something which we feel doesn't fit into the program, we can always give a feedback to get it changed. The program focuses a lot on environment (starting second semester) and it is fair. It's very relevant to contemporary issues.

Placements are not good. Mostly research driven. If you want to go to corporate, this isn't the place for you.

Hardly any events except freshers and farewell. The university enrollment is 450, so everyone has seen everyone on campus. It's like a close family. Other than that we have quizzes and climate fests. That's it. The participation is less than 100 students for everything.

Somewhere in-between. MBA is the expensive. ?10,00,00 for the program. Eco is approx ?80,000 per semester. You'll need to pay extra in the 1st sem for registration. If your course has an industrial visit, that's ?10,000 per visit but it's worth it.

I haven't. There are some scholarships available but I don't know the process to apply and haven't looked at anything scholarship.

It's a small 2 acre campus with a small number of students. There's a half basketball court (which is also a small football court, and volleyball court), a badminton court, a Table Tennis table, chess board and cartoon for students. There's an annual sports meet where students, staff and other faculty participate. Most of the students are from Delhi but it's a mixed batch. There are 2-3 international students as well. Gender ratio is skewed towards females. In my course there are 6 boys and 17 girls. There's no politics on campus. There are a few clubs which organize quizzes and events but they're mostly inactive

Alumni network is strong. We got to meet some alumni during orientation and other sports meet. Everyone's helpful.

There's an online aptitude test to shortlist the candidates for interview (between Mar-May). If you're shortlisted for the interview, you'll need to go to the TERI SAS campus and there's an exam followed by the interview. Both exams are easy but you'll get grilled in the interview (this primarily depends on the faculty). Every course in TERI is related to environment and sustainable development. Almost every program is research oriented. My interest in environment and research made me choose this.

Every professor is highly qualified. They've their teaching methods. Some are lazy, others are really helpful. They know their subjects well and will address your queries but they demand professionalism from you. There's no scope for 'chalta hai' attitude. Communication is mostly thourough email and you'll, at most times, need to make an appointment to meet them on campus. They're experienced and over 40 years old. There hardly any professor under 40.
