- Long lab hours. Usually every practical subject has 2 lab hours so sometimes it becomes hectic since somedays we have back to back lab hours.
Course Curriculum Overview :
I chose BCA degree because I had a interest in computer field since high school. The curriculum at DYPIU I feel in the semester 1 was not good since students were introduced with python programming in the first semester itself instead we should have been introduced with C language because it's the base of most of the programming languages and students should learn from the basics I feel. Rest of the subjects for the semester were good. We had HTML CSS too. And the pattern for rest of the semesters is also good like RDBMS, OOPs in Java , Mobile and cloud computing etc..A change in the teaching methods I feel can be faculties asking students to simultaneously executing programs on their laptops while teaching. Many times students write the programs in the lectures and go home and execute them on their laptops. The exams are being conducted after every 1 month and the semester gets over in around 4 months so it's pretty fast than other colleges.
Placement Experience :
The students become eligible for the placements after the 3rd year that is the 6th semester. Accenture, Amazon, Cognizant , FIS, Hitachi, Infosys, Lokmat, TCS, Tata communications, Tata Motors , Sakal , Toshiba, Vodafone , Wipro etc are among a few recruiters at DYPIU. Profiles for a BCA student can be Data Analyst, Software Engineer, Web Developer, Data Scientist etc. My plans after getting the degree is to join a reputed company as a web developer since my interest is in that field
Fees and Financial Aid :
The fees when I joined the university was 77500 per semester but it may increase in the coming years. The university does offer some scholarships. For the toppers excellence award is provided with scholarship. Also for the OBC and other category people the university provides a 50% cut in the fees .
Campus Life :
The annual event at DYPIU is called as Indus Fiesta which is conducted normally in the month of January. Many competitions are conducted during the fest like poster making, sports, hackathon, chess etc. The fest is conducted for 3-4 days. The library is well stocked with books for each course. You also get access to some online libraries as well. The classroom are highly equipped with the recent technology. It has projectors and LED displays. All the classrooms are Air conditioned. DYPIU does have a sports ground. Sports like cricket, football, volleyball, basketball and others are conducted. Inter school matches are also conducted. The college also has clubs like , Venn , Mehfil, CodeDecode, Mind Scape club etc.So students can join their favourites.
Admission :
The eligibility of the course is 10+2. Personal Interview is conducted during the admission round. You have to first apply through the university website then fill the admission form after which you undergo a PI round online. And then if you get selected you are issued a offer letter within a couple of days and you may proceed to fee payment for confirmation of admission. The exams are conducted every month. The papers are conducted one/two subjects per day with no day gaps between two papers. 2 Mid Term Examination, Practical Exam and End Term Examination is conducted. The difficulty level depends on the subjects. Sometimes we are provided with question banks and sometimes we aren't. But passing is not that hard. The admission round need not be improved I feel. It's good and you can easily get in .
Faculty :
The faculties are highly qualified. The student teacher ratio is also average. It actually depends on how many students are daily attentive. The faculties do ask for any doubts in the lectures but students hesitate from asking. You can easily interact with the faculties during the office hours for doubt clearing.
Interview Experience :
I went through a Personal Interview during the admission for which I was asked a few things regarding to computer like what is RAM ROM, what is an operating system, what is a CPU and a few general life questions as well. This round is conducted online through Google meet. The process is simply apply through the university portal and an PI is scheduled for you. I didn't prepare much for the round because I did have basic knowledge so it wasn't tough for me
