Course Curriculum Overview :

Course in du is outdated. It doesn't have a lot of insights about the present scenario. The economics curriculum is overall fine and provides you with a lot of knowledge about the concepts. The readings have a lot of case studies and examples too but a lot of these readings are of foreign authors so they don't have a lot of case studies of the Indian economy. Exams are conducted after every semester. The semester is around 4 months. Exams are usually in the month of May and then in December. Timings may vary but exams are conducted in the morning. The general elective exam is in the evening shift.

Placement Experience :

From the 5th semester, you can sit for placements. Names of some companies who visited are PWC, De Shaw, Ey, Deloitte, E&Y, Zomato, Hcl tech, tresvista, Preferred Square, and some other not-so-big companies. The average package was 5 lakhs. The highest package was 30 lakhs offered by De Shaw. Profile offered was of analyst, sales, and operations. The percentage of students getting hired was not so high. Around 5 students in my class got placement offers. Only 10% of the students who applied got placement. My plan after my degree is to pursue Master's.

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :

The fees of Maitreyi are very affordable. It has one of the lowest fees within du colleges. The total cost of the First semester was around 7000 rs. The total cost of the Second semester was around 8000 rs Total cost of the Third semester was around 9000 rs. With the implementation of NEP, the fees have increased a bit for the new batch. The scholarships are for economically weaker students and academically good students too. There is a placement cell in the college. I have not taken any employment because I wanted to go for higher studies but 3-4 students in my class got employment in the big 4 companies.

Campus Life :

Festivals in my college include the Annual fest, Diwali Mela, Freshers, women's Day, department fest, etc. The college celebrates almost every festival with huge pomp and show. There is dj set up and various stalls are also there. There is also a placement fare. The library is average. You can find all the books from your curriculum. Though it doesn't have the latest editions. There is a Wi-Fi facility. ACs are there in the library. The library also has laptops and a printout facility. The sports ground of the college is not so big but there are a few sports like basketball. NCC is also there. NCC students are given proper training. Extracurricular activities are in the form of societies. Some societies are Enactus, Fashion society, dance, singing, eco, placement, commerce, etc. There is a student portal where you can check your attendance and internal marks.

Admission :

I was in the last batch that took admission by merit of board scores. Now students have to give cuet pg to get admission. I don't have a lot of ideas about cut off but it is not on the higher side. The application form of cuet can be found on the nta website. You can select the college according to your preference on the DU UG website when the application starts. Reservations are according to du norms. Exams are difficult in nature. They require a lot of understanding of important concepts. You need to work extremely hard because economics is not a very easy subject.

Faculty :

The faculty is overall good. Teachers try to make concepts clear. They also acknowledge doubts and are overall friendly in nature. Faculty to student ratio is fine. There were around 50 students in my class so the ratio is of 1:50. Most of the teachers also reply privately on WhatsApp if you have any doubts. My only problem was they did not solve a lot of numerals in the class. The classes mainly consisted of theory concepts. They sometimes used to give real life examples and presentations too.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My course was good for me as I'm preparing for the upsc civil service examination so political science helped me a lot in my optional subject. Through my curriculum I got to know many theories and approaches that we can see in our daily lives and as I just said I want to go into bureaucracy so it is helpful for me. There is no improvement needed as such because my professors were actually so good. We used to have monthly tests for our internal and semester examinations which were on average neither easy nor difficult.

Placement Experience:

From last semester students become eligible for campus placements. There is below average placement in this college. Students almost opt for higher studies. But still there are many companies which visits but they offered on an average 3 lakh per annum package. Only 20% students got placement and rest of them opted for higher studies. My plan was clear at that time to go for research in economics

Course Curriculum Overview:

I have been a lover of English as long as I can imagine. Being in Miranda only brings me closer to my beloved, as each one of my professors only seem to strengthen my affection of the language and for the literature it offers. It teaches you in abundance about how the world used to work and how it works today. One who studies english shall never ever fail to navigate their way through life. Considering the examination, if you have it in you to look at things beyond their exterior, you'll ace this subject. Though, I must state that being a subject course, it takes a little more than "one to two days before exam studies" to score a CGPA higher than 8.

Course Curriculum Overview:

As we can see , teaching method depends on old teaching that is reading and writing, professor comes and read the paragraph of the book and meanwhile students are noted it down...while some teachers prefers to practical learning other than this. The course that is selected by the students having career itself but we have to take notice that it's matter of opportunity gives to them.

See In our Admissions process We get to See many changes in the Admissions process and then the Education process like implement of New Education Policy 2020 which makes us deal with so many subject which are 7 in number and but talking about my college the teaching methods of the faculty members mainly based on the orally explaining the things or teaching through visuals like PPT which some How help us to understand the in a good and proper way. Talking about Curriculum through NEP2020 it give exposure to learn the different different subject according to our wishes and it also help ua that we are not only engage with one subject we are learning many thing from one places so I am happy with Curriculum and faculty members of my college.

Placement Experience:

Third-year students are eligible for campus placement opportunities. Some of the companies that came to our college are PlanetSpark, RSVI, IDFC First Bank, FNP, Zoconut, etc. The highest package offered for our course is around 10LPA and the average package is 4-5LPA for positions like a translator, editor, content manager/creator, etc. However, the placement percentage of our college/course isn't that high. The average percentage of placement in our college is approx. 40%. My plan after completing the degree is to have a job alongside my Masters.
