Frequently Asked Questions

Q:   Is BA at Maitreyi College better than Zakir Husain Delhi College?

A: 

Hello Nishar Ahmed, with both of these institutions having great name for themselves in academics and also having achieved a gradation of "A+" by NAAC, is quite tough to compare these two colleges for studying any subject in Bachelor of arts. Zakir Husain college offers almost 26 different streams or varieties of graduations in Bachelor of arts whereas Maitreyi college offers only 8 varieties in Bachelor of arts. So this may decide a student's choice as to which college to select based on the specialisation one wants to do in this stream of arts. Another criteria is the placements. In this area perhaps Maitri out scores Zakir Hussain. They have declared on their webpage that almost 60% of more than 200 students placed last year were from the stream of arts. 

       Be that as it may both colleges appear to have a very nice set of teachers and academic programs as well as varieties of co curricular activities for students for the overall development. This makes both the college almost appear at the same footing while selecting. Of course if one is a male student then there is no choice but to go for Zakir Hussain college since Maitreyi is only for girls. But overall I would say Zakir Hussain is better than Maitreyi for BA. 

Best wishes to you.

Overview: Maitreyi College.
Placements: Economics Hons students get the most placements in our college as it is one of the demanded courses in DU. The average package students get is 6 LPA whereas the highest gets 11 LPA. Most of the students get into Data analysis and HR. Students did many internships in various fields like marketing, research, policy-making, etc.
Infrastructure: Our college has a new hostel now which is will be started soon. Our college has two main buildings - Arts and New Science Block which is equipped with labs for computer Science, Biology lab, Chemistry lab, and Physics lab too. Our college canteen gives food at affordable, subsidized rates. We have different societies for different areas like zeal for contemporary dance, Galore as fashion society, Apollonia for music society, and many more. Overall, it has a great campus worth good facilities. Plus point:- We have a mother dairy booth inside our college for ice cream lovers.
Faculty: Our teachers are top-notch with great insights. They are helpful, strict, and knowledgeable. Our curriculum is rigorous but it is worth the hard work. The level of exams is the same for all colleges of DU and internals are quite good if one studies regularly. The pass percentage is above 90% for our course.
Other: I liked studying economics and it has great opportunities ahead so I chose this course and it was a good decision. Our college has its fest that is Raphsody and there is departmental too named as economical. Scholarships are given but they have some criteria based on income and grades.

Overall, it is a good college for girls.
Placements: In our college, students with 95% got placed. The placements depend on the students. The highest package is 7 LPA, and the average package is 3 LPA. Good companies like Accenture come here. Maximum students got internships from college societies only.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is average. The library is good. Sometimes, we face problems during classes when maximum strength comes to college because rooms are a bit small. I feel like this is the problem in 90% of DU colleges. The canteen is pretty good and offers good food.
Faculty: The teachers are good and helpful. We can even call them, and they won't get irritated. The problem is that if a teacher leaves the college due to some issue, the college takes a lot of time in appointing a new teacher for the same subject due to which we lack in the syllabus. Most of the time, it happens only with extra subjects.

I am satisfied with teachers, infrastructure, crowd, placements, and money value.
Placements: Nearly 50% of students are placed from Maitreyi college in different bonafide MNCs or top established companies every year. Top recruiting companies include Nike, Puma, Jindal, Wipro, Tesla, etc. Top roles may include department heads, deputy secretary, etc.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of this college is good. It provides greenery here and there, a large open auditorium, ample classrooms, Wi-Fi facility, sufficient laboratories, well-equipped library, grievance committee office, newly constructed hostel with canteen and mess, also different sports playground, etc.
Faculty: Faculty members are well versed with knowledge, and follow practical approaches besides theory. The practicality of subjects is also tested through laboratories, projects, ppts, etc. The semester exams are tricky which helps students to know where they stand regarding the depth of the subject. But the passing percentage of students is positive.
Other: I am pursuing B.A. in economics honors from this college. This course is good, and allows students to know more about the economy in practical aspects.
