Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course as I was always curious to dig deeper knowledge in home science. The faculty is very well educated, most of them are from the same college only and friendly too. The internal assessment are very easy and the level of term exams would be moderate.

Placement Experience:

Placements and internships are too offered by the college. A good amount of students has the chance to grab placement and internships but if anyone doesn't get that chance, they too have various options to work in.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose the course to pursue a career in Food science and nutrition. We have to study 5 core subjects and out of it we can specialise in only one of them . One has to work very hard to specialise in food and nutrition as it is high in demand and specialisation are given through merit list. Teaching staffs good and qualified, most of them have graduated from Lady Irwin college itself. Exam happens every semester as per dates declared by the university. In comparison to other DU colleges the fees are little high especially exam form fees. Scholarship are provided to meritorious students and LIG . Also one can issue laptop for academic years which is quite good.

Placement Experience:

There’s no campus placement although it depends on teachers like our teacher helped us get internship through her personal connections . Otherwise one has to look for job on their own . Mostly people from our college go for further studies, clear net and teach at colleges only.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I chose this course because it is a technical degree which helps you develop skills for food industries and will offers more options in government sector as well like fssai, FCI etc. I had PCMB in my 12th and this course use all of your science and maths and makes things interesting. The course includes everything from machine operations, nutrition, chemistry thermodynamics and many more which doesn't seems related but will work out once you start from one end. The faculty were good every professor had a doctorate degree and some of them wrote their own books which are famous as well ( Dr.pulkit mathur ). Every professor had their own way of teaching some uses ppts, books & some will taught you on board. We had 2 exams in one sem (internals+externals). Internals could be assignment as well and externals were moderate level exam( 5 subjects). There were scholarship provided to some students i wasn't very aware of that. Well the fee seems worthy as there were 5 practical subjects.

Placement Experience:

Placements after bachelors is a tough choice but college is not very active in this regards. Professor will help you grab internships in big industries like mother dairy, pepsico but placement are not provided. But now course has changed to 4 year degree in the last year which is optional you can work on your placement and develop some skills under the college itself. After BSc there is no much scope of high salaries, it will range around 2-3Lpa only. so go for higher studies if you can for hikes. I will prefer exploring government sector as they will pay you way better than private with a bachelor's degree. You can get a very reputed job as a food safety officer in fssai . Many of my friends opted for dietician and nutritionist as well . There are plenty of options in private and government sector.

Course Curriculum Overview:

Faculty at my college were mostly doctorates. I would rate them a solid 9 in terms of their knowledge. But the best part was that they would spoon-feed you everything. Exams are conducted every 6 months, with minors (internal tests) between 3 months. Difficulty level is Easy to Moderate. One can easily clear most of the exams by studying the night before. Course fees are a little higher compared to other government colleges but there are a lot of scholarships available which is given to those who meet the criteria.

Placement Experience:

There is no provision for placements. Since it was a bachelor's course, students were free to look for internships on their own. A lot of students did it by obtaining contacts from their connections.
