Which is better for a B.Sc (hons.) in chemistry, St. Stephens College or Hindu College? Please answer with reference to fee structures and teacher

Below given table shows a comparison between the two of the best colleges under Delhi University to pursue B. Sc (Hons.) in Chemistry. ST. STEPHENS HINDU NIRF RANKING #1 #3 TOTAL FEES (APPROX.) 1.2 LACS 55K ACCREDITED NAAC ‘A’ GRADE NAAC ‘A+’ GRADE Academics: According to previous year, the cut off for admission to Hindu college for B. Sc (hons.) in Chemistry was 96.66% and in St. Stephens it was 92%. The faculty contingency in both the colleges is very well reputed, dedicated and felicitated having won many recognitions to their name. It is not justified to distinguish between the teachers as all are almost at par with academic qualifications, achievements but are restricted by curriculum and different teaching patterns. Both the colleges organize national conferences and workshops for the holistic development of the students and to gain industry exposure. Placement Opportunities: The key feature which sets Stephens apart is that when it comes to applying abroad for higher studies or internships or fellowship programmes, a lot of graduates have had the opportunity to do so owing to the scholarships and collaborations with foreign universities like Oxford, Yale and Cambridge. It has a more disciplined and rigorous and calm aura about itself not being as actively a part of the very famous DU fests as compared to other colleges. There are many ongoing research projects funded by SERB and UGC. Top recruiters being Hetero drugs, Emami, Homi Bhaba Centre for Science Education, BCG etc. offering a median salary of around 9LPA. In the Hindu college, the median salary package for B. Sc in Chemistry at offer was 5LPA and average placement rate was low as most of the graduates sought to opt for higher studies. The top recruiters were DE Shaw, KPMG, IndiaBulls amongst others. Organizations like Empower India, Philip Morris International, Outlook rolled out internship opportunities too.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum was the same as Delhi University's curriculum. I particularly chose this course to get an in-depth understanding of all three physics, chemistry, and mathematics, since in Honors courses you study only one subject. As far as the faculty is concerned, Stephen's has the best science faculty at DU, especially the chemistry dept. Min qualification of teachers was PH.D. Exams used to take place at the same time as Delhi University

Best college of north campus.

Chemistry Honours course is basically for those who love chemistry or are planning to take Chemistry as a subject in the UPSC exam. The faculty is outstanding the ratio is about 1:5. All the faculty members are pretty qualified and have doctorates from IITs or other reputable institutions. Teachers pay extra attention to all the students. They are easy to communicate with and help them wherever necessary. Some teachers may slack in teaching but will still provide quite good notes. The teaching method is very interactive and notes are provided for all the topics and subjects. The notes provided are very good and are from diverse books. There is a fixed schedule for assignments and exams. They are easy to pass if studied from the notes well. The teachers also provide the research opportunities in the college and the information about the available ones outside of the college.

The teachers are good, and the syllabus is well covered in the class itself. The course in itself needs a lot of improvement as there are some topics which don't find application in the current times. I chose this course as I was interested in Chemistry

High Quality Exposure and Extraordinary College Life

The course curriculum was the best for me since I wanted to get into the field of research. Throughout the course, I received excellent training, which I am sure will be helpful in the career I am pursuing. The faculty to student ratio is much higher than in other colleges, and there are enough professors for the students to go to with doubt or clarify a topic. The professors are mostly alumni of the college, who have worked hard and come back to keep up the legacy of the college. They are highly qualified, and they use a variety of teaching methods. The exams are conducted at the end of every semester. The exams can't be considered tough, and a student can score marks above average with one or two months of serious studying.

College that brings us one step closer to success

Even during my early schooling, I had always been intereted in the field of physics and I just knew i had to pursue it as my career. So i decided to take Physics Hons. The faculty in the college is at par with the knowledge required and they help the students in the best ways possible. Teacher also record the live classes and upload on youtube so that students who missed can learn from them later.The faculty student ratio is about 1:25. According the regulations of the Delhi University, the term exams are conducted twice a year and are quite easy to pass

About St Stephen’s College

The course curriculum is the same as that of other colleges in DU with a little advantage of college professors who have their own style of teaching. So you would get much more than the syllabus. There were around 15 faculty members for 150 students in the department.

The college has a teacher-student ratio of 1:9. The faculty is highly qualified and the overall growth of students is given a lot of importance. Teachers are knowledgeable and they help us in achieving our future endeavours. The syllabus is completed almost a week before the semester end and an ample amount of time is given for revision and doubt solving. Labs and practicals are given equal importance and regular checking is done.

Fee Structure And Facilities:

The fees for the Mathematics Honours course is almost 45,000 for the whole Academic Year which is one of the highest in the whole DU circuit. There is some unnecessary fees that is being taken by the college like the lawn maintenance fees and more that I think so is not a great deal. Yes their is transparency in fee-breakdown.
