Delhi University: Students' Opinion

AI-Generated Summary based on 73 Reviews

At North Campus, the student-to-professor ratio is about 1:150, with the junior batch divided into sections to improve interaction. Direct communication with professors is done through email. Exams occur twice a year, and the English Department is praised for its lecture quality, focusing on comprehension and writing skills while strictly enforcing anti-plagiarism policies. Although placements for MA English students are not actively facilitated by the placement department, other departments have better placement outcomes. MA English students often pursue further academic careers or teaching roles. Internships and freelance opportunities, like with Testbook offering Rs 12,000 per month, are pursued independently. Delhi University offers scholarships for students from less privileged backgrounds, though experiences vary. The annual tuition fee for the MA English Literature program generally ranges from INR 10,000 to INR 20,000, with some reports of fees up to INR 28,000, varying by college. The course lasts two years, with an examination fee of around INR 710 per semester. Fee structures differ between North and South Campus colleges, with concessions for PwD students and stable fees despite recent hikes. Overall, studying at DU is cost-effective, especially with available university resources.

Delhi University: 1 Answered Question

Rituparna Nath
RituMA in English Literature , University of Delhi (Graduated 2016)

It’s not too late to prepare for the entrance exam MA in English program at Delhi University even in the 3 years of your bachelor's. Just be regular at it and keep some important points in mind.

 

Be well versed in your BA course- Read your text thoroughly and in various aspects. Read diverse critical essays on each text to attain a multiplicity of perspectives. In case you are graduating from a different subject, refer to the BA(Hons.) DU syllabus.

 

Read History of English literature- Knowing the roots is a basic step. To get an idea of the basic chronology and ages refer to these books:

  1. A short history of English literature by Sir Ifor Evans.

  2. A brief history of English literature by Peck & Coyle.

 

Indian Literature in English- To get enough knowledge of the same refers to these books:

  1. A concise history of Indian literature in English by Arvind Mehrotra.

  2. Indian writing in English (4th edition) by K.R. Srinivasa.

 

Gain enough knowledge of literary theory & criticism- For this read:

  1. Beginning theory by Peter Barry

  2. Literary theory by Terry Eagleton

 

Update yourself with award-winning authors- This is not difficult if you read beyond your syllabus. Some of the awards to keep track of are:

  • The Nobel prize

  • The booker prize

  • Sahitya Akademi Award

  • Gyaanpith (for Indian regional literature translated into English)

  • Pulitzer Prize

Apart from these strategies, I suggest becoming an avid reader and reading beyond your syllabus, and also practicing writing book reviews. All this will help you make a way for the DU English Literature program.
