Course Curriculum Overview :
I always had a knack of physical geography and I was always into technologies used to know about the earth. Geography is a never ending subject. It is always evolving. There are facts that already exists and there are facts that always changed, therefore, it is a subject where you can study about the place you are living in. It is interrelated to all the other subjects in all matters. However, instead of just theoretical part of the curriculum, I believe the officials should introduce more practical means of teaching because I personally think that students will be more interested to learn while they practically get involved and learn about it rather than just sitting in a classroom and stare at random PPTs.
Internships Opportunities :
There is a placement and internship cell for the students and various different companies come with different opportunities. There are different community outreach projects like Project Dhyan and Project Noor present for students to take part in. Some internships are free whereas some provide performance based stipend. However, I believe every student should atleast do 2-3 free internship for experience.
Placement Experience :
Campus placements starts from the fifth semester, that is from the last year of the course. Different companies like Delloite, IBM, etc visits for placement opportunities and as far as I knew, the lowest CTC in the year 2022 was around 6lakhs per annum. I did my post-graduation later on so I never went through the placement process.
Fees and Financial Aid :
The yearly fees here is comparatively higher than other DU colleges. However, since the subject Geography has a lot of practical work, extra fees are included here. The first year, I paid around ?37000 and for 3 years it was almost similar to this. All other fees are included here however examination fees are excluded which is around ?800-?1000 every semester. Different aids and scholarships are available and whoever meets the criteria can avail for it anytime.
Campus Life :
The campus life is amazing and it is an all girls college so the vibe is different here. I could physically enjoy the college life for only 2 semester (Covid-19) batch here!. There are different social clubs, different Fellowship opportunities are also available. I suggest that whoever gets into IPCW should take advantage of all the opportunities given because the options are amazing and one should enjoy their fullest during this time.
Admission :
This college was the first college I applied to. I was fortunate enough to get through it in the first list itself. However, I also got into Miranada House, another prestigious college but I didn't take admission there because of some personal reasons. Moreover, there were a lot of seniors and alumnis with whom I was personally familiar with so I didn't try anywhere else later. During 2019, the admission process was strictly merit based. Cutoff lists are being rolled out every 2 days and whatever marks we get in our 12th Board exams, it is totally based on that. However, now to get admitted, everyone needs to give the CUET UG examination, which is an entrance exam and whatever marks you get decides your faith. After you clear the cutoff, the admission process is quite smooth.
Faculty :
I did my UG from 2019-2022. There were 6 faculty members and all of them were individually very talented. However, there were times where the student-professor relationship was not up to the mark or not that good but all in all it was a good experience. My favourite faculty was Sonali Ma'am. She is amazing. She is not just a great teacher but also an amazing mentor. I never had great relationship with a professor named Ayanika, since she was always favouring a few students. Personally, I never liked her way of teaching and it differs from one person to another. I had 6 semesters so I had to give 6 semesters exams and a midterm and an assignment each semester. As much as I remember, all of the students cleared all their exams because no matter what, the knowledge gained throughout was always up to the mark.
Night Life :
I was not a hostel kid. I used to live a bit far from the campus. But there is a gymnasium, swimming pool, basketball court, tennis court, 2 story library with lift facility available all inside the campus. The cafeteria here is also amazing and so affordable. The momo here is lipsmacking! I remember the curfew timing used to be 7-8PM for the hostel kids but it might be different now.
