Course Curriculum Overview
I choose Ba. BEd. history because it has professional value and also helps int he upsc exams. The curriculum revolves around practical work such as in history we learn about museums, epigraphys, manuscript and also world history which gives us a upper hand in practical work. As for bed we cover basic pedagogy, psychology and teacher development and also practical sessions, Currently there is no need in any change as it already covers both practical and theoretical domains. The frequency of exam is vast and difficulty level is medium it would be great if there is a little gap between papers

There are CUET, NCET, GATE, CENTAC, if still there are spots left they call for spot admission.
Faculty
In my class there are 70 students from various major and one common course and we have 3 teachers for that one common course which contains three papers. In my history department there is a professor called ruman Banerjee he is good and gives important to practical learning and execution he takes us to field sites and help us understand the subject more clearly. There is a professor called luv (in tamil) his english is so bad students have difficulties to understand what he is saying. In a year there are 2 semester each having four papers 2 from major and 2 from ITEP. On a average 3-5 students have difficulties clearing the paper. The course curriculum covers practical theories and essential skills for us to survive in the domain.
Night Life
Pondicherry University looks good only after evening all students will be free and roams here and there opposite to the university there is beach you can watch sunset daily if you want. There are teacher times inside the university one presented near boys hostel and one in girls hostel but any one can go in the both of them. I would advice you to go out in the evening if you don't have any vehicle with because the public transport is Hard to get in the evening. Major hangout place is the rock beach, auroville , Sunday market and much more
