Course Curriculum Overview :
Course in du is outdated. It doesn't have a lot of insights about the present scenario. The economics curriculum is overall fine and provides you with a lot of knowledge about the concepts. The readings have a lot of case studies and examples too but a lot of these readings are of foreign authors so they don't have a lot of case studies of the Indian economy. Exams are conducted after every semester. The semester is around 4 months. Exams are usually in the month of May and then in December. Timings may vary but exams are conducted in the morning. The general elective exam is in the evening shift.
Placement Experience :
From the 5th semester, you can sit for placements. Names of some companies who visited are PWC, De Shaw, Ey, Deloitte, E&Y, Zomato, Hcl tech, tresvista, Preferred Square, and some other not-so-big companies. The average package was 5 lakhs. The highest package was 30 lakhs offered by De Shaw. Profile offered was of analyst, sales, and operations. The percentage of students getting hired was not so high. Around 5 students in my class got placement offers. Only 10% of the students who applied got placement. My plan after my degree is to pursue Master's.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
The fees of Maitreyi are very affordable. It has one of the lowest fees within du colleges. The total cost of the First semester was around 7000 rs. The total cost of the Second semester was around 8000 rs Total cost of the Third semester was around 9000 rs. With the implementation of NEP, the fees have increased a bit for the new batch. The scholarships are for economically weaker students and academically good students too. There is a placement cell in the college. I have not taken any employment because I wanted to go for higher studies but 3-4 students in my class got employment in the big 4 companies.
Campus Life :
Festivals in my college include the Annual fest, Diwali Mela, Freshers, women's Day, department fest, etc. The college celebrates almost every festival with huge pomp and show. There is dj set up and various stalls are also there. There is also a placement fare. The library is average. You can find all the books from your curriculum. Though it doesn't have the latest editions. There is a Wi-Fi facility. ACs are there in the library. The library also has laptops and a printout facility. The sports ground of the college is not so big but there are a few sports like basketball. NCC is also there. NCC students are given proper training. Extracurricular activities are in the form of societies. Some societies are Enactus, Fashion society, dance, singing, eco, placement, commerce, etc. There is a student portal where you can check your attendance and internal marks.
Admission :
I was in the last batch that took admission by merit of board scores. Now students have to give cuet pg to get admission. I don't have a lot of ideas about cut off but it is not on the higher side. The application form of cuet can be found on the nta website. You can select the college according to your preference on the DU UG website when the application starts. Reservations are according to du norms. Exams are difficult in nature. They require a lot of understanding of important concepts. You need to work extremely hard because economics is not a very easy subject.
Faculty :
The faculty is overall good. Teachers try to make concepts clear. They also acknowledge doubts and are overall friendly in nature. Faculty to student ratio is fine. There were around 50 students in my class so the ratio is of 1:50. Most of the teachers also reply privately on WhatsApp if you have any doubts. My only problem was they did not solve a lot of numerals in the class. The classes mainly consisted of theory concepts. They sometimes used to give real life examples and presentations too.
