Satisfied with the department and faculty. Professors are the best and opportunities are great.
Placements: Various students from the department of linguistics were placed at reputed locations and companies. Most of our seniors and classmates have qualified JRF/NET, and many of them are serving at the British Council and Macmillan. Some of them are working in news channels and media agencies, while some are IELTS trainers as well. A few are working in Central Institute of Indian Languages involving in research activities. I have completed my training from CIIL in translation studies and would like to see my future in book publishing as a proofreader and translator.
Infrastructure: Our department has all the facilities like air-conditioned classrooms, projectors, department library, Wi-Fi, digital whiteboard and many others. We have medical facilities, and there are lab sessions conducted for psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and neurolinguistics. The canteen serves us really nice food. The food offered is of high quality, and the price is very low. The hostel is the best. Everything is just perfect if we talk about DU, be it education, exploration or infrastructure. They provide all the facilities throughout our course.
Faculty: Teachers in the college are very much qualified, and all of them have completed their PhDs from abroad. The quality of teaching is the best. Teachers use handouts and projectors for interactive sessions. We have various seminars and fieldwork sessions to learn while having fun. I got to learn a lot from DU and especially our department, and that helped me write a book and become an author. We have 52 seats, and all are filled.
Other: Various fests and events are conducted to facilitate talent and learning habits. The campus surroundings are beautiful. You won't feel like leaving the campus once you visit here. All the facilities are available here. Arts faculty department has a central library and is open 24x7.
