What Students Say
Likes
- The campus is very beautiful, lush green and overall a very big garden feel. Canteen is somewhat average, the distance from metro is around 1 km which feels okay for a college accessibility.
- There are a lot of departments under arts with different programmes under each department which gives ample opportunities for social interactions.
- The faculty is very much experienced mostly towards economics and finance. Most of the faculties are holding P.hd. in their respective domain. The curriculum is also very well designed covering economics, Statistics, finance, analytics and marketing.
Dislikes
- A little development of classes might be needed because of old age building, there are not a lot of good benches or classes.
Course Curriculum Overview
I chose this course particulary because of low fees and most of my batchmates did because of that only. The curriculum still needs development from an MBA perspective mainly because the course is focused on economics rather than MBA as it should have been because of which there is lack of case studies in preparation but overall it tries to balance the whole economics and the specialization you take in 2nd year ( its a dual specialization where you have to choose two specializations out of three i.e analytics, marketing & finance ). The exams are held at end of semesters only which last about 4 months in average and the difficulty would be rated at 3/5 in my opinion. there are 30 exams of internals and if you have less than 65% attendance then you get zero, no matter what submissions you have done all semesters, so all in all you have to pass from 70 marks only.
Placement Experience
Till the time of writing, I am in 3rd month of my 5 month last semester and in my class about 60% of my batch is placed. You have to submit a student body fee of 40000 a year to be eligible for taking placements as this help out in having events organized outside the college. As there is no placement cell provided by DU, our student body is mostly run by students. Currently highest package offered was about 27 lpa and roles that have come are management trainee, Junior Data scientist, risk analyst etc.
Fees and Financial Aid
The yearly fee comes to about 49850 a year. it includes all types of fees like tution and development. Apart from that the fee for PWD is 13475 a year and there is about 2000 rs charges for application of both MBA ( Business Economics ) and MBA (Finance) and this fee is about 1000 for reserved categories.
Campus Life
There are around 4 committes i.e Placement, alumni relations, public relations and corporate communications cell, other than that around 8 clubs focused on different aspects like sports, consulting, finance, data, economist club etc. All clubs and committees are student run with oversight of faculties and south campus has a huge library which includes a whole lot of titles from all things like journals, novels etc to studies focused books like psycological, economics, finance etc. There is a official fresher and unofficial fresher done. Apart from this sports tournaments are also done not in our college but our teams visit different campus to take part in other college's sports tournaments. The classrooms are getting equipped with new technologies but still it lags behing.
Admission
I did got 98.16 percentile but being a General Engineer Male candidate, I didn't had a lot of options. I applied to almost all IITs, IIMs and all other colleges who take admission from CAT. I chose this college because of the fees, as I got call from IMT gaziabad and IMI New Delhi both of them having fees over 20 lakhs vs this college whose fees is about 2 lakhs including student body. I got rejections from all other colleges because of being a GEM candidate and low academics, some interviews didn't go up to the mark. The admission of this college is pretty easy as from 2-3 years they have stopped taking personal interviews so you only get accepted based on your overall score which includes gender score, academics of 10th, 12th and grad, also takes which degree you took in account. pretty much this sums up my answer
Faculty
Faculty to student ration is aout 12:1. The faculty of the college is pretty approachable, you can even go to HOD with small doubts. The relationship of faculties to the batch are also good with them being serious when it matters and enjoy when that matters. All semesters have 7 exams each with each semester having atleast 1 economics subject . The exams are pretty easy if you have studied. Majority of students who fails are in economics subject as during 1st and 2nd semester, they are the toughest.
Night Life
No type of late activities are there in college. It's a day college and there is a very small hostel because of which there is no late night activities that happen in the college. No gym facility is there. The cafeteria start at around 9 am and close off in evening. Library is operational 24/7 and campus is accessible at any time provided you have identification to enter. The college inside is safe to roam around at night. the hostel have a very limited space as there are many departments and around 5-7 people only get hostel. Famous hangout places include satya niketan as majority of cafes and restaurants are here only.
