Course Curriculum Overview

5

It is very relevant and important. You'll not just study British canonical literature but world literatures too. You can choose literature and cinema too which is a very contemporary topic. The readings are dense in literature so one who doesn't like to read shouldn't go with it.

Internships Opportunities

4

Our college provides us with SRIVIPRA every summer. It is a research internship wherein you choose your mentor and topic and write a research paper. It last for 3 months and if you choose a good mentor, they will guide you very well. We are also provided with other internship opportunities like Vice Chancellor's internship scheme and others.

Placement Experience

4

The placement cell works well. I didn't want to do a job after Bachelor's so I didn't sit for placements. My batchmates who were interested were placed in ecom express, deloitte and so on. They guide you with cv, interview in the last semester.

Fees and Financial Aid

I pursued my Bachelor's with honors in English literature. The fees increases from 14,000 in first year to 18000 in final year. The teachers were very good and understanding. They taught us excellently and helped us grow. There are many clubs and societies and joining them will definitely help you. Infrastructure could be better but considering it is a government college, it is decent. The college has a placement cell where you can join for internships and placements.

Campus Life

4.5

College life at Venky is lively if you make the most of it. The annual fest- Nexus is organised with fervour. We had Mohit Chauhan as the artist for the year 2023-24. The other college societies like leonci, nrityangana, verve are good as well.

Admission

I opted for Sri Venkateswara College over north campus colleges because of the nirf ranking and naac grade. Besides, I had heard about the faculty being really good for English literature. Glad to say that I took the correct decision.

Faculty

5

We had six semesters. We studied two core papers in the year, one compulsory aecc and one elective. For the second year, we studied three core papers and one elective. For the final year, we studied two core papers and two electives from our own course. We were the last pre-nep batch so we had 75 written and 25 internals.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is a bit too theoretical and less practical. The exams in the college takes places every month which are seasonals and are for internal marking and then we have semester exams in every 6 months which accounts for the external marking.

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.

The course is really very interesting. It keeps up with our expectations. Involves both practical and theoretical aspects to make sure that we are able to face the real world. Also, with the help of the guidance that we get from teachers we're able to ace both the aspects.

Course Curriculum Overview:

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
