Curriculum was descent however could have been modified as per the current times requirements - focus on Economic History was a lot, which could have been reduced and some economic issues of todays time could be introduced.

Internships Opportunities

In bachelors typically we dont have internship offered by the college. Students can do it by themselves during summer break. Till our time there was no provision of internship, not sure if things have changed now.

Fee Structure And Facilities

Since it was a University of Delhi college, being a Government college, fee was very affordable. Around 2500 INR per annum with examination fee seperately of around 500 INR. This is during 2007, amount may have changed now.

Fees and Financial Aid

Do not have knowledge about the same as did not avail of any loan or scholarship facility. However DU offers scholarship hence there is a provision.

Campus Life

2.5

Campus life was one of the best times of growing up. we had lot of cultural societies like debating, singing, theatre, sports and dance.Gender ratio was very balanced with almost equal percentage of male and females. As DU is a very affordable institution so people from all sections of the society had access and were enrolled in the course.

Hostel Facilities

2.5

During our tenure there was no hostel available, however a hostel was in the process of building up. hence wont be able to describe in detail about the hostel facilities.

Alumni/Alumna

College alumni were very helpful and there were regular interactions being organized with them by the alumni department of the course. Alumni were at very senior positions in top companies and share their experiences on the career path post a bachelors degreee

Exam Structure

Exam structure was very comfortable. Enough gaps in between of two papers. Lot of preparation time was given.

Faculty

3

Few were very good. However, in 3rd year didn't have a very good faculty. For 1-2 subjects there was a huge gap before we got a professor. Also, got few ad hoc professors who were finishing their Phd from JNY, they were not very regular not too experienced.

Placement Experience:

Placements are available in college, the drive is quite extensive, everyone is made aware of the choices and options and counselling is present too. It is from the third year, students are eligible to apply for placements. Companies and organisations take part such as Niti ayog, Times, Geostrata, Prajatantra foundation, etc. Those who desire usually work on their CVs, keep on doi internships and then get a placement. The packages are not that impressive to be honest.

I got a seat in Ramjas College. It is a north-campus college. The infrastructure is too good compared to the remaining colleges. The teaching also going well but I faced some language problems. I'm from south India so I don't understand Hindi properly. But here mostly they teach in Hindi only and English is used very rarely.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course itself is prestigious and is mostly opted for by people who plan either on preparing for the Civil Services or those who want to pursue academia. The course structure is framed in a manner that you don't just simply study history there, but you ingrain a critical viewpoint of a young historian. The faculty of History Hons. has some of the best Professors in the University, although you will in any course at any college find some teachers below your expectations, you don't have to bear them for more than 1 or 2 semesters. Passing the exams is not very difficult, but yes scoring above average is. If you get a GPA ranging from 6 to 7, you've performed fine. Above that is considered a Very good performance in Hons. courses of Social sciences at Delhi University. there are semester exams every 5- 6 months
