Course Curriculum Overview :
At the time of choosing my course, which was BA Program ( Pol sci + Office Management), I was hoping that the second discipline will be related to management and subjects related to it. The course curriculum however, offers subjects like Computer Applications, Cyber crime, Business communication and stenography for the last three semesters under 'OFFICE MANAGEMENT ' discipline. The subjects were quite traditional and as a student who didn't wish to pursue stenography as a career proved to be a little useless for me. The subjects under the political science discipline were fine, majorly related to Indian administration, Indian politics and world politics. We also had language electives in the first two years, which were compulsory, alternating between english and hindi for the first four semesters. The course had two semesters in one academic year and it was 3 year long course.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fees for my course was quite nominal pertaining to the fact that it was a traditional course and not a professional one, that also from the central university of India. The fees for one year was around ?13,000 and an additional fee of ?500- ?700 was charged during the filling of forms of semester examinations. The total tution fees for three years for me was around ?40000 but this may differ from course to course.
Campus Life :
The infrastructure of the college is one of the best in the whole of DU Circuit. MAC, Vasundhara enclave, has been newly constructed, therefore the campus is spread over 10 acres of land with an administrative block, an auditorium block and a lush green ground where students are always seen playing various types of sports, especially football and cricket. There is a badminton court and also an indoor playroom with games like chess table tennis etc. The college is also equipped with a gym. The library is one of my most loved places in the college with a plethora of books to choose from and comes with AC rooms to study properly amidst the scorching heat of Delhi. The college also has conference rooms, committee rooms, a cafeteria with very affordable price rates, computer labs, projection room, media and photography room among others. There are around 13 different societies for students in addition to the committees for each department and organise events almost all year round.
Admission :
During the academic year 2020-21 , when I took admission in MAC, the admission process for BA Programme was based out of clearing specific cutoffs for different combinations of disciplines. The cutoff for my course was 86%. The admission process was pretty smooth. You get the mail of confirmation after the payment.
Faculty :
The faculty to student ratio is approximately 1:50. Barring a few teachers, the student teacher interaction is relatively less. The faculty, though, are esteemed professors with most of them having a Ph.D in their respective fields. The faculty is quite approachable but at the same time students are required to maintain a strict professional distance with them. Personal mentorship is not provided.
