Tanya Bansal's Review On Gitarattan Institute Of Advanced Studies And Training - [GIAST], New Delhi

Faculty:

Course Curriculum: Rigorous but manageable: The course curriculum at DTU is generally considered rigorous, reflecting the high standards of engineering education. However, with consistent effort and time management, students can successfully navigate the coursework. Industry-oriented: DTU's curriculum is often designed to be industry-oriented, ensuring that students acquire the skills and knowledge relevant to the job market. Challenging exams: Exams can be challenging, requiring a deep understanding of the subject matter. Regular study and practice are essential for success. Student Performance: Pass rates: While the pass rates can vary depending on the course and individual student performance, most students are able to pass the exams with adequate preparation. Repeat courses: In cases where students fail courses, they may have the opportunity to repeat them in subsequent semesters. Good and Bad Aspects of the Course: Good aspects: Strong academic reputation Experienced faculty Excellent placement opportunities Vibrant campus life Bad aspects: Competitive environment High workload Limited flexibility in course selection (in some cases) Academic Schedule: Number of exams: The number of exams per year can vary depending on the course and semester. Typically, there are multiple exams throughout the year, including mid-term exams and final exams. Classes per day: The number of classes per day can also vary. Students usually have 4-5 classes per day, with a mix of lectures, tutorials, and laboratory sessions. Timings: Class timings typically range from morning to evening. Free time: The amount of free time students have after classes can depend on their course load, extracurricular activities, and personal commitments. However, there is generally enough time for students to balance their academic work with leisure activities. Teaching Methodology: Diverse approaches: DTU faculty employ a variety of teaching methodologies, including lectures, tutorials, laboratory sessions, and project-based learning. Experienced faculty: Many faculty members at DTU have significant industry experience, bringing practical insights into their teaching. Faculty Admire/Dislike: Admire: While individual experiences may vary, many students admire faculty members who are knowledgeable, approachable, and passionate about their subjects. Dislike: Some students may dislike faculty members who are perceived as demanding, unapproachable, or ineffective in their teaching. Attendance: Mandatory attendance: Yes, DTU typically has a mandatory attendance policy. The exact attendance requirement can vary depending on the course and department. Consequences of absence: Failure to meet the attendance requirement can result in penalties, such as being barred from exams or receiving a lower grade.

Tanya Bansal 's Review On Gitarattan Institute Of Advanced Studies And Training - [GIAST], New Delhi

Faculty:

1. Course Curriculum - Difficulty Level: The curriculum is moderately difficult, balancing theoretical knowledge and practical applications. While the subjects are manageable if you stay consistent, students do fail in exams, especially in subjects like Mathematics, Data Structures, or core engineering subjects where the concepts can be challenging. Passing isn’t that tough, but excelling requires effort, especially since many subjects rely on rote learning rather than deep conceptual understanding. 2. Good and Bad Aspects of the Course: Good Aspects: The curriculum offers a solid foundation in core subjects. For engineering students, courses like Computer Science or Electronics are well-structured. Practical Labs: They provide hands-on experience, which is crucial in fields like engineering. Bad Aspects: Outdated Syllabus: Some parts of the syllabus haven’t been updated for years, especially when it comes to new industry trends and emerging technologies. Lack of Practical Exposure: Though labs are present, they often feel disconnected from real-world applications, and the practical exposure could be improved. 3. Exams per Year: There are typically 2 major exams per year, known as the End Semester Exams (for both odd and even semesters). In addition, there are mid-term exams (internal assessments) and regular assignments/projects that contribute to your final score. 4. Class Schedule and Free Time: Classes per Day: Generally, there are 4 to 6 classes a day, each lasting about 1 hour. Timings: Classes usually start at 9 AM and can go up to 4 or 5 PM, depending on your schedule and lab sessions. Free Time: After classes, students have a decent amount of free time in the evening, though this may vary based on assignments, projects, or exam preparation. Weekends are usually free unless there are extra classes or workshops. 5. Teaching Methodology: The teaching style varies greatly depending on the faculty. Some professors rely heavily on PowerPoint presentations and dictate notes, while others engage students with interactive sessions and practical examples. Unfortunately, many faculty members focus more on theory than practical application, which can be frustrating for students who prefer hands-on learning. 6. Admired Faculty Members: Prof. S.K. Sharma (Mathematics): He was one of the most engaging teachers, simplifying complex concepts in an easily digestible way. Prof. Anil Gupta (Electronics): His passion for the subject and ability to relate theory to real-world scenarios made him stand out. 8. Mandatory Attendance Rule: Yes, there’s a mandatory attendance rule. Students are required to maintain at least 75% attendance in each subject. If you fall below the required attendance, you could be barred from taking the end-semester exams, which is a serious issue. However, in practice, some leniency is shown, and students with 60-70% attendance are often let off with warnings or additional assignments. But I’ve seen people being denied exam entry due to low attendance, especially if they repeatedly flout the rule.
