What Students Say
Likes
- There are few things I like about my college. The college's infrastructure while still lacking in many ways, is one of the better ones when compared to other colleges in Delhi University. The college canteen is also decent enough.
- The canteen offers a variety of meals at affordable prices. No non-vegetarian food here though, so if you're a meat lover, you'll be disappointed. The crowd here is generally nice. I've had nothing but nice interactions with everyone I've met here.
- The people here are diverse. Although, I have seen a good amount of them being from Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand.
Dislikes
- As I mentioned earlier, the college infrastructure is still lacking in many ways. Renovations are going on all the time. Despite that many classrooms have old desks, air conditioning doesn't work everywhere, and only a small amount of rooms are
- So much equipment is either broken or doesn't work properly because they've been using the same old stuff for years. The college by itself offers no internship opportunities but few do come from Delhi University.
- I've heard from different society members, citing the lack of funding to societies to be an issue. Overall, I've had a very lukewarm experience in college. It has had minimal impact on my personal and professional development.
Course Curriculum Overview
I feel my course, B.Sc(H) Electronics, is incredibly useless. I've learnt nothing actually uselful in the past two years. I feel like one has no choice but to pursue higher education because I'll be pleasantly surprised if I can find a job related to the field with just the bachelor's degree. I know that it is mostly a theoritcal course but the practical portion is absolutely terrible. What is the point of doing testing practicals? I feel like students should be taught electronic design but I guess that is way above what this course can provide. The exams however are incredibly easy. It has never been easier to pass in my life.
Placement Experience
One can easily view the placement statistics of our college on their website. The placement cell of the college manages the placement process. On first glance, it appears impressive. But most of the placements are in similar fields of commerce like consulting or finance, followed by Arts and Science courses getting the least amount of placements. I personally have no faith in my course getting me any placement. So I'm preparing for government exams anyways.
Fees and Financial Aid
Being a government college, it is quite affordable. My course costs around 25k annualy. The fees does increase every year. I saw an increase of 1k-2k in my course fees. Scholarships are provided every year. Those who require them can apply accordingly. Campus employmeny opportunities are not available.
Campus Life
Our college's annual fest took place this year after years of being cancelled. I always find such events to be quite mediocre. The college library is decent. A large collection of books is present to choose from. The classrooms are quite basic. Air conditioning doesn't work everywhere and few clasrooms have smart boards and projects. Many socities are present in college but few are active consistently. Mostly they hold workshops, which I've found to be not quite useful. I do have great classmates though and enjoy spending time with them.
Admission
The admission process is based on CUET scores. Based on that, your name is shortlisted. There is no interview process in my college. You just have accept your college allotment and pay the course fees. The entire admission process takes place on Delhi University's admission counselling website. Reservation benefts are available. Overall, the admission process is quite smooth and I faced no problems except some technical errors on the website.
Faculty
The faculty here while highly qualified are terrible at teaching. Being highly learned in a subject doesn't really translate to effective teaching ability. They are nice people thoough. Very approachable and understanding. The faculty- to- student ratio is perfectly fine in my class, since we're only about 30 students. But in some extra subjects and more popular courses like English or Commerce, there are a lot more students per teacher.
