Course Curriculum Overview

4

I chose BA Hons political science for my graduation.First of all I have keen interest in this subject.During my graduation I learnt different aspects of political science which I was unaware during my school days . Second this is important for my career to clear UPSC exams and other government exams . The changes I would suggest that there is need of revising tha syllabus. Because suddenly a lot of syllabus is added and we as students get panic and cover half of the portion of syllabus. Exams are taken evenly throughout the semester to allow for adequate preparation . Every year there is two semester. Mock tests are taken by professor frequently.

Internships Opportunities

3

For my course there was very less changes of internship. But one can attend many interactive seminars. My college often organises seminars.some times they were calling prestigious personality also . I once tried vice chancellor internship which they were providing during my last year . It was paid one for 3 months during summer days.

Fees and Financial Aid

1st year—-approx. rs 10000 2nd year—rs 11200 3rd year - rs 10900 rs 500 is the fee for semester exams . The scholarship I was given was based on my academic result, which was rs 800. But there are many scholarships given for different categories.

The library provides a wide range of books which is enough during our course. They charge fines for delay of submitting books of the Library. One can issue books for 15 days .

I took admission in the basis of merit list . I scored 96% in my Xll standard. The university of Delhi provide portal for admission which one is required to fill and it costs ?1000. The admission process goes for months mainly 2 .The process of admission is very smooth and if any mistake is done correction window is also open.

Faculty

4.5

Faculty of my college is very supportive. Most of the professors use interaction sessions to teach the student . Professor Sumit and Indra mohan Jha are my favourite. They engage students through interactive teaching methods, provide timely feedback, and create a supportive learning environment often contribute to positive educational outcomes. Apart from academics they also help to develop our character personality. If today after my graduation they are in touch with us.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Too vague to understand, feels extra burden of unnecessary irrelevant topics , extra papers like SEC/VAC simply add to the burden while barely providing with any skills and values as their name suggests . Studying them and preparing for exams add extra stress and unnecessary burden on them , diverting their focus from their core papers , which are already too huge and they study materials or readings simply fail to assist . Areas for improvement would be - proper structured study materials , also proper structured practical subjects / papers for students where they can actually learn or gain knowledge/skills which will be advantageous in their future .

I would say the placement opportunities are more available for science , commerce background students in the college there are rarely any placement opportunities for humanities background students . Mostly students starts engaging in placement in the fifth semester .severky companies visited campus every year including Deloitte , EY.TCS etc . Around 40 - 50 percent students from professional courses get the placement annually .even for the students not opting for placement the exposure n the strong alumni network of college help them secure good opportunities outside campus
