Dislikes
- Miranda House has a very small auditorium, which isn't enough for all the students of the campus.It do have a seminar hall and sac, but they are also not enough.
- Miranda , similiar to other DU colleges have an elitist culture.If you can't fit into that it will be hard to survive
Course Curriculum Overview :
Similiar to other English literature curriculum , mostly it included conventional topics.However,it also attempted to include the topics that can go beyond the framework of the conventional curtin of English literature
Internships Opportunities :
There was an active placement cell in the campus. It notifies the students with the opportunities in the mail.The students are provided with an account of the placement cell. The college used to keep placements, however, I am unaware of the specifics
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
During my time in Miranda, they used to follow a one year method to take fees from students. It was 14000+ for arts and humanities.For science,it was 19000+. They used to include all other bills within this.I don't remember paying for anything expect an exam fee in the last year.But it was refunded to my account.I haven't witnessed any hike in the fees, however,the amount of fee may make the course inaccessible to many. The scholarship portal of the college website was active,there was financial aid provided by the college, It also included other aids and scholarship from the alumnis
Campus Life :
I am an introverted person, but I can assure you a lot to offer to improve the quality of your college life. It does have its annual festivals and many other fests organised by different clubs and societies. The annual fest is known as Tempest, it is organised in two days and it often includes music and DJ night, and many other programmes, it is typically held in March.About the library and infrastructure ,the books and journals were easily accessible,the username and password of applications like JSTOR were provided from the beginning.The activities of sports was very less, however other extracurricular activities were largely from different societies and clubs for it.
Admission :
Before CUET-UG,the admission was based on the merit scores from the 12th.In Miranda,the cut off for English literature was around 97.After submitting the application in online, the students were asked to present in the colleges where you can apply with your mark.If you are availing reservation,you have to submit a caste or community certificate, designed for the central sectors.After the supervision of the required documents,and payment of fees.The student will be provisionally enrolled in the college.
Faculty :
I was a student at Miranda from 2019-2022. The department of English,has a fair ratio of students and teachers.The teachers used to divide to different courses and some faculties were approachable.Some faculties did seen approachable ,however,they were intimidating also.However,the quality of lectures and class room discussions were good.To improve the interaction and approachability, there was a section called tutorial, in which small group of students used to interact with a professor.There was mentor-mentee program,that was also aimed at improving the interaction.
