Course Curriculum Overview

4

The curriculum provides a great knowledge about how politics as a discipline is based around the reality of life. The political theory brings out the conceptual knowledge about liberal and other such ideas while the political thought brings out the ideas of ancient thinkers like Plato, Aristotle and also ofmediaeval thinkers like Machiavelli TH green etc. there is also Indian political thought providing great knowledge about the political system of ancient India and how the makers of modern India thought about the political society as a whole.

Fees and Financial Aid

The year wise fees was 16000. It depends on the course we are applying for and it is higher for the BSc courses as it involves practical work. In my case I had JKPMSSS scholarship which made the education almost free throughout my college years.

Campus Life

4

There are different college societies that one can join. Our department society was named Republica. I got the opportunity to lead it as the head of event management. The college faculty also provides the opportunity to the student to come out with newer ideas of their own and they can put forward their ideas when it comes to extra curricular activities freely

Admission

I took admission through the scholarship scheme so the college was actually alloted to me. Albeit I had also applied in other colleges but out of them it was a better college and the experience was full of easiness. Usually the cutoff of this college is less than the other prominent DU colleges which makes it easier to get admission here

Faculty

4

The faculty to student ratio was around 1 professor for 10 students and there are also tutorials that take place which acts as a ground for kind of extra doubt sessions. The faculty had good teachers like Professor Deepak Kumar and Sitaram who explained the concepts in good detail and also shared their experiences. There are exams every semester and total exams are of 36 subjects.

Night Life

3

The nightlife is not feasible as the area shahdara in which the college is situated is a kind of secluded area with zero nightlife. There is no hostel and students like me lived in PGs which are quite available freely in the area

Placement Experience:

Dyal Singh Placements aren't that hefty that I can boast a lot about them. Since I have already mentioned in previous section that I want the deepest knowledge of political science and the only way, one can gain that is by doing masters. Coming to DSC placements over 30% students of Political Science from our college are placed via campus.

Placement Experience:

Media people as Hindi Hons students obviously have chane there or researches. Some even pursue freelance things as college provides the perfect platform to gain confidence and showcase the skills. Otherwise research or political expert roles are the only roles offered to Hindi Hons students. Since I want a complete command I will be doing masters in Hindi Hons.

Placement Experience:

DSC placements are not that great as around 30-40% students are placed and that is how it is here. Most students of Political Science go for higher studies or get job opportunities in political consultancy or journalism.

Placement Experience:

For placements, there's not much on campus placement programs. Our placement cells are active though. Time to time they keep us posted about the upcoming internship or job opportunities and even invite various organisations for placements. You can even look for off campus placement programs and teachers are very helpful in this. They even offer letter of recommendation for the internship opportunities upon request.

Reviewed on Oct 9, 2025(Enrolled 2024)

Course Curriculum Overview:

I love the course I have opted for in the College. I had so much interest in literature since I was in school, hence made the decision to opt for English Honours in my undergraduate degree. The curriculum of this particular course is easy to get, teaches practical knowledge. We have Internal Assesment and Continuous Assessment before theory exams. In continuous assessment, we are given some topic to make presentation or a group discussion from our sense of knowledge and experience. Speaking up in a crowd and in front of the whole class gives the practical knowledge of being there, present, confidence and speak up your thoughts I would love if we can also watch theatre within the curriculum as we read various plays but watching and analysing them would be great. Mostly the exams are held in December and May, they are moderate level of examination and I have found absolute no difficulty sitting in them and writing. We get 3 hours for the core subjects, and 1 hour for our respective VACs, SECs and AECs.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is relevant to the current aspects of real world. It is also very focused on the practical component of the subject and helps us know how to apply our theoretical concepts in real life. Aspects that influenced me were: the practicality, the relatibiltiy of concepts and the testing approaches as well.
