Remarks
Flexibility and autonomy in choosing your own courses, interdisciplinary nature of the course because of electives offered from other departments, No rigid examination structure, creative assessment patterns
Course Curriculum Overview
The course was very comprehensive in its approach to literature, there were electives offered within the department so students could opt for what interested them the most. Efforts were made to make the syllabus as non-canonical as possible and to include texts that are often not included in the syllabus. Industrial exposure was not really a part of the curriculum given the nature of the discipline but the university does have a placement and career opportunity cell. The faculty is very good and has professors who are not only good teachers but often empathetic to students needs as well.
