Although one would like for the course to focus on practical applications instead of rote memorization of theory, DU follows strict coursework.

No, the college doesn't provide internship, but students can do projects under the faculty students and there is Campus Placement Cell which holds internship fair to get students internships from companies, etc.

Admission
Firstly the form for admission in DU has to be filled. Then I filled the admission form for St Stephens which includes the registration number of DU form. It asks about past academic detail, courses one would like to apply to and why(SOP), documents like baptism certificate and all if we are Christians, etc. After that, I was called for a written test of half an hour related to the subject I was applying for followed by a personal interview consisting of the principal, faculty, etc.
Faculty
The faculty of the college is really good. They work really hard and make sure the students are understanding the topic that they are teaching. They make sure they cover the syllabus and also teach more things for entrance exams.
