Maitreyi College Reviews on Placements, Faculty and Facilities

The course curriculum is relevant and concept based which influenced my choice. It builds strong academic fundamentals for higher studies, though more practical exposure is needed. Semester exams are regular and moderately Difficult

In first year you are eligible for internship. Deloitte company or so much companies visited our college. Highest package of our college is Rs. 23.5 lakhs per annum from bajaj capital company. Percentage of students vary from year to year. My plan after degree is to get a government job.

The placements were not so much for any other stream apart from the commerce stream. The highest package goes around 5-6 LPA. There are many internship opportunities, but not many for a job. But recently, the placements cell has been working on this and collaborating with many big companies.

My course is multidisciplinary because I was interested in more than one subject and I wanted to explore more than one field. Teachers tutor well in the respective fields and do give real life applications. The frequency and timing of exams is good but sometimes there are no gaps for preparation.

the curriculum is decided by delhi university, economics wing and is followed by all the colleges of du, although few topic are often irrevelent which teachers tend to skip. i do feel that curriculum is pretty old and they should introduce new topic which are more related to reak=l world and give us real life experience not just bookish knowledge which is irelevent. they should also ask for students input related to their curriculum, teachers sometimes tedn to just do book reading. internal exmas are taken frequently and difficulty is 3 out of 5

Many hotels and corporate for the receptionist job as English Hons students are in huge demand for the same role. Even some power companies and all came for placements and making our placements count to some 40% of the class getting places.

*It's a general course so every subject is taught in detail. *The course is not very practical and doesn't offers much with respect to real world applications.Those who want to do phd,research or want to become a professor in Biology can take this course. *The Focus should be more on practical releated to real world applications . *Exams are held every 4-6 months and they are easy to moderate.

B.A. The programme is generally well for its flexibility, but its effectiveness can vary depending on the subject combinations and individual expectations. Students can select from a variety of subject combinations.

Honestly, for sociology, in my college or any other college, there is no placement for mostly art students and also sociology. Sociology is a field that is based on research and there is no organization that essentially interviews and takes students from colleges that are from sociology. You will have to make your career in academics for it. That is why in our college, sociology students mostly are not getting any placement. However, there are three or four students who got placement, because they were also masters in other fields. Percentage of students I would say would be only 10% because you will have to study other fields to get placements in good companies. There are very good companies in our college coming for placements, but it's just our field that does not make it as given the reason above.My plans after the degree is that I will be doing postgraduate, as most sociology students do. They also opt for a PhD. I will be opting for postgraduation. After that, I will think about it further, also compete for government jobs.

Generally students of 6th sem go for the placement, and companies like Vipro do visit the college. The average package is around 5.2 lakhs but our department students generally don't go for placement because sociology as a discipline is not in very much demand in the job market. I am thinking of doing LLB after completing my bachelor's degree.
