B.A. (Hons.) in English - Batch of 2029

4.6

The best off-campus College of Delhi University.

Placements: Placements for B.A. (Hons) English are comparatively low as most students prefer higher studies. The overall placement rate is around 34 percent, though only a limited number apply. The highest package is 22.5 LPA, while the lowest is around 6.5 LPA. Recruiters include Accenture, EY Global, WTW, and Genpact, offering roles in analyst, HR, business development, and consulting positions. The college also organizes an internship fair, and the placement cell is quite active. With decent skills and some internship experience, even online, you have a fair chance of getting placed.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure is honestly one of the best among DU colleges. Almost every classroom has centralized AC and most of them work pretty well. There are lifts at convenient intervals, smart projectors in classrooms, and the campus is generally clean and well-maintained. Wi-Fi is available, though the speed can be a bit uneven at times. The library is probably the best part; it is a well-built three-floor library with a good collection, along with an e-library service. Overall, the infrastructure is definitely one of the strongest points of the college.

Faculty: Most of the faculty is quite good, supportive, and knowledgeable, especially in B.Sc. CS, B.Com, and B.A. Programme. For B.A. (Hons) English, the teachers are knowledgeable too, but supportiveness can be a bit hit-or-miss: some are really good while others are not as approachable. Teaching quality is generally good, though. The curriculum follows NEP, so it is fairly relevant and covers useful areas, although becoming industry-ready also depends on your own skills and internships. Passing semester exams is manageable, and the pass criteria are mainly based on DU guidelines.

Other: I choose this college mainly because of its fests, especially Kalrav, which is honestly one of the better fests in DU. Mohit Chauhan performs recently, and Neeti Mohan performs earlier too. The college also keeps organizing cultural events throughout the year, so there is always something happening. Apart from that, the infrastructure is much better than many other DU colleges and the crowd is pretty decent too. I choose B.A. (Hons) English because it is a popular course and also gives a good foundation for pursuing law later, which is my plan.

Amazing college with amazing infrastructure, worth taking admission in.

Placements: Almost 75–80% of students get placed from the Department of English. The average package of this department is 3–4 LPA. The top recruiting company is Edurev. Usually, 60% of people get internships from our course. The top roles offered are General Manager, etc.

Infrastructure: We have well-equipped labs and good infrastructure. We also have specific language departments such as Japanese, German, Russian, etc. The lecture rooms, auditorium, and labs are air-conditioned 24/7.

Faculty: Teachers are extremely amazing and helpful. They conduct workshops and field trips so that students understand their curriculum in a better manner. They also help us access research and internship websites so that we get several opportunities as well. Faculty is one of the best at Delhi University.

Honest review for Dindayal Upadhyay College.

Placements: The exact number of students placed is not known to me, as it's my first year in college, but from what my seniors told me, this course of English honours specifically has a high chance of getting its students placed, and nice companies prefer English honors students highly from the college.

Infrastructure: The college has great air-conditioned classrooms and projectors to make the class interactive, though it might lack in playgrounds for football and other games. Still, there is a high participation of students in sports activities from this college, and sports are encouraged.

Faculty: The college has great faculty, which is very supportive of the students, and I think that there might be a few changes that can be made by the University. The curriculum, what we are taught, is very much relevant to what we are taught, and students are made industry-ready, but sometimes lack interest.

Infrastructure is amazing but that's basically it.

Placements: Several students who do not want this course ended up in it because of NEP. Most of the alumni of my course have come back as assistant professors to teach in the same department. Several of my seniors have gone to UK to pursue their master's. The professors have a really good income though.

Infrastructure: We have ACs in our classrooms, library, labs, and canteen (these ones are not always working). We also have lifts and a language lab for our English department with the latest windows update and tech. Hostel also has ACs and lifts. The food in the mess is fine. Canteen food is affordable and delicious though sometimes hygiene is a concern. We have a decent size ground but it's not big enough for all the sports. We also have a newly opened medical room. Girls and boys common rooms have ACs, beds, changing rooms, study tables, mirrors, and pad dispensers.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful and qualified. But sometimes it's almost like they don't want to teach. The course curriculum is relevant, and I found similarities between the things we are taught and what is taught in several courses in the UK. Semester exams are doable and passing rates are high.

Other: I wanted this course because I love reading novels, learning new things, and analysing a lot. The best thing about my course is the friends I have made and the new things I learn every day. I would appreciate it if we had less subjects to study (only focused on English literature). Events and fests happen often and scholarships are provided to toppers every year.

College is very nice and clean.

Placements: So basically, we need a minimum of 60+ percentage to get placed in a good company through the college. Companies come, take our interviews, and offer us good packages, including internships. In our course, many roles are offered, such as staff members in private companies, etc.

Infrastructure: All facilities are good—labs, library, and Wi-Fi are very good, and the canteen food is also good. The ground and medical management are good enough. Yes, our college organizes sports tournaments for many games like cricket, basketball, etc. I like to play cricket with my friends.

Faculty: Yes, teachers are very helpful with us. Their nature is very humble. Semester exams are easy for those students who studied properly. Teachers explain every topic properly and politely. They help us in our studies. The passing percentage is 45 percent in our college.

Other: Yes, the events are very nice. The crowd is sometimes too much, but that's okay.

Really good infrastructure and you can excel here.

Placements: In my course , we didn't have any placements. Actually, the thing is we don't have professional degrees like BTech and all, so none of us went for placement; we didn't sit. Yes, we get internships at Niti Ayog and the vice chancellor's scheme; other courses have placements, like in BCom and BMS.

Infrastructure: My college has the best infrastructure in the University of Delhi; centralized AC in classrooms, libraries, and labs is our biggest strength. We have numerous lifts in our college and a well-maintained auditorium. We also have a sports complex, where we mainly play table tennis and badminton. Canteen is pretty average.

Faculty: We have a very good set of faculty members; although it's very young faculty, the depth of knowledge is just unmatched. The problem is we only have 2 senior professors and the rest just lectures so in between semesters, our junior professors leave the college for a better place, so permanent faculty is an issue.

Other: You will be busy with everything if you participate regularly in fests and mainly society workshops.

It is the best college in Delhi for bachelor's and master's degrees.

Placements: Our college doesn't provide any placements and salary packages because there are no recruiting companies. Internships are not provided in this course.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our college is world-class. Its building is very good with 7 floors and 10 elevators with proper facilities. Our college has a library on the third floor with 50,000 books.

Faculty: The quality of teaching is very good because of their qualification and experience. Teachers in our college are well qualified.
