Course Curriculum Overview

As a student of geography department of Dyal singh college, to be honest i do t regret taking admission in this college because the geographical department of our college is one of the best and the oldest in the Universal of Delhi, i opted for geography because i got 99/100 in geography in 12th standard and i also have interest in this subject, studying geography is such a wonderful experience for me, I think they should improve the methods to teach students like using more digital media and 3D diagrams for teaching concepts of physical geography otherwise its all good, the exam are not that difficult if you will study throughout the semester you will pass the exam easily.

Dyal singh college has an annual fest called Priyadarshini which is managed by the college and its societies.The college also has a huge library with a variety of genres and amples space for studying reading and just sitting .Societies for dance , music , acting are present with many more socities. Me being in NCC i ge to experience many things which i don't think i could experience if i didn't get thi college as the Ncc of this college is one of the prestigious society of UoD.

Admission

I opted for Sri Venkateswara, Kirori Mal, shayam Lal. I got 600/800, i knew what i was looking for i focued on the course rather than focusing on which college i get, as geography is a field pf my interest and it is not available in most of the colleges of Delhi university, only 10 to 11 colleges provide Ba Geography hons, I chose this college because it was one of the top colleges for the expertise of geography and the fees was affordable, also hunge in terms of campus size.

Course Curriculum Overview:

British classics, Indian writing, postcolonial literature builds a strong foundation in literary analysis, critical thinking, and interpretation, which are useful skills. As for comprehensiveness, the curriculum is quite broad. It covers multiple literary periods, genres, and critical theories over the three years, so you’re not really missing out on the essentials. In that sense, it feels academically complete. But sometimes, it leans more towards breadth over depth you move quickly from one topic to another.

Placement Experience:

There's a placement cell and placement drives do happen in college but genuinely the package offered is not really considerable. After the 4th semester students are considered to sit in the placement drives though I would say it is not very efficient and fruitful.

Placement Experience:

Placements are available in college, the drive is quite extensive, everyone is made aware of the choices and options and counselling is present too. It is from the third year, students are eligible to apply for placements. Companies and organisations take part such as Niti ayog, Times, Geostrata, Prajatantra foundation, etc. Those who desire usually work on their CVs, keep on doi internships and then get a placement. The packages are not that impressive to be honest.

The curriculum was overall good and being a economics honours courses it was challenging at times. The course offers many things for students interms of their further academic pursuits or any placement they are looking for. Talking about the areas of improvement and teaching methods there are none. The exams of the respective subject are to happen. They take test 1 , test 2 and there is final exams.

The reason why I choose this subject because I like history and want to know more about it . History have the best opportunities to pursue the UPSC , Anthropology, archeology and we can learn more about historical researches . The faculty im the department of history is updated and well versed in the field of history and have adopted student friendly teaching methods which make me suggest this subject in JMC to the students who likes to pursue higher studies in history. The exams are conducted at the end of every semester with moderate difficulty level .
