What Students Say

Likes

Faculty, Infrastructure , Cultural fests , College Gardens specifically
Labs are well equipped and teachers are strict towards classess
College provides an overall exposure. Cultural fests are so much fun . College has different societies and all them are really good.

Dislikes

College is quite strict regarding studies and attendance so this is more of an advantage and less of a disadvantage.

Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

A bachelor's degree from life sciences can open gates for numerous courses at masters level . It provides you a deep knowledge of botany, chemistry and zoology , which helps you crack exams like IIT JAM that demands chemistry in its entrance test. Pursuing a degree from biotechnology, biomedical sciences and other specialised courses will limit you to few options.

Class Size: 50Course Fees: INR 14000 per year

Internships Opportunities

3.5

There is a placement cell in college which provides notification for all the relevant internships. But you should look for internships by yourself it will help you seek better opportunities. Most of the internships are offered by AICTE HISTORY OF INDIA SITES OF INDIA TEMPLES OF INDIA AND THEIR HISTORY PLASMID STEM CELLS

Fees and Financial Aid

For my course I was charged around 14k for an academic year. Scholarships are available for Delhi students but are also available for other students but I cannot provide insights regarding that. If we discuss about campus employment then a degree from life sciences will take you to research field but placements are not possible at undergraduate level .

Campus Life

Campus life is very good but if you are from science department your involvement can be limited as you have to complete files attend four hours long labs . But classes are suspended during major events like DIWALI mela and RHAPSODY the annual cultural fest. These events are super fun and you should definitely join them.

Admission

I appeared in CUET UG and admissions were provided on the basis of score . Maitreyi College is a south campus college and cutoff was not revealed. But my score was 350/600 and I got into first review.

Faculty

4.5

If we talk about faculty then I will mention Maitreyi College has the best faculty. All the faculty members are very cooperative and cool . All they ask you is to complete files at the day they'll mark attendance.

Other Applied Colleges

Shaheed Rajguru College of Applied Sciences for Women | Bachelor of Science [B.Sc] {Hons.} (Food Technology)

Because it is a specialised course and my scope at masters level would be narrowed.

Honest Review Ramanujan College

Course Curriculum Overview:

I will rate the course curriculum 8/10. I like the labs specially they are modern with well equiped systems. According to me I suggest to improve the course structure to include more practical based learning instead of theory. Overall course is good.

Dream college or not ?

Likes

Greenery of college campus and surrounding areas
Close metro access and other basic amenities
Diverse crowd which allows good exposure overall

Dislikes

Wifi Network is slow and not available at all places in campus

Course Curriculum Overview:

Life science includes zoology botany and chemistry considering this combo I think the study material is quite okay in terms of topics chemistry connects school teaching with one step ahead learning . Zoology provides new insights on various topics . Botany covers deeper understanding of syllabus . So overall it's good . Hands on lab work meets the demand of the subject . Also the topics taught match with the type of questions asked in exam. Difficulty level i would say it's moderate for botany and zoology but for chemistry is quite tough. Time management is a much needed skill for examination purpose. For course curriculum i would say more focus on current situation should be laid rather than history .

Likes

The College provides great Exposure to everyone.
The Crowd and Societies of the College are always active and energetic.

Dislikes

The whole structure of Admin office is underdeveloped, which utilizes a lot of our precious time.
Many of the College events are ill-organised.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The syllabus of Electronics Hons and Electrical Engineering is same but makes it different is how we perceive it. We study the syllabus with theoretical aspects while the engineers with practical aspects. We have a chance to opt for the 4th year, which only comprises of Research. One of the optionals is Generic Elective and if you take GE from same department for all semesters, you will attain a minor degree. The Faculties and whole curriculum is great but the other optionals require improvement. The other optionals only make the Student Life hectic, that stumbles the Student's focus from Course track.
