What is meant by evening colleges of DU?

JT
Jayant Thakur Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Student at University of Delhi

Classes at the evening college start in the afternoon and end in the evening.

The curriculum, degree, classes, principal (in most cases), canteen, and location are all the same for the morning and evening batches.

However, the cutoffs differ; evening colleges have a lower cutoff than morning colleges. It has a different faculty and administration and is less crowded than the morning classes.

It differs from one college to the next. Some evening colleges are excellent, while others are on par with government schools. Teachers are present, but students don't actually care, and vice versa.

So, students with lower percentages in their XII standard are more likely to be admitted to evening colleges.

If you want to attend evening college, you don't have to feel inferior to morning students because many students from evening colleges have topped the DU exam.

Ultimately, it is up to you to consider and make decisions wisely. Many students attend evening colleges and then go to coaching to prepare for exams such as UPSC and SSC in the morning.

What are the timings of DU colleges for an evening shift?

HH
Harshit Hooda Posted On : October 10th, 2022
Studied at University of Delhi

Different colleges have different teaching hours; Here are a few details about the two colleges to give you an idea of an evening college's teaching hours.

  1. Zakir Husain Delhi College (Evening)

A fantastic B.com (Hons) college with extremely serious faculty members. Their hours are from 16:00 to 19:00., for the first semester students. Please keep in mind that the number of subjects increases as you advance in your career. As a result, it is natural for Zakir Husain to extend the timing until 20:00-20:30.

  1. Bhagat Singh College (Evening) 

A wonderful college on the South Campus that gives students a lot of opportunities. Their evening college schedule does not begin in the evening. For both shifts, they have the same Principal and other administrative staff. Their evening shifts begin at 14:00. 

It is to be noted that every Evening college operates on the same schedule as these two colleges.

Which is better BHU or DU?

AS
Anumita Sinha Posted On : May 13th, 2022
Economics from Banaras Hindu University (2018)

To say, one of these is better than the other will be an oversimplification. You should choose BHU or DU based on the course you are interested in. Here is a streamwise comparison of DU and BHU. 

Arts - For English and Economics, DU is better. BHU courses are better for Sanskrit, Hindi, Geography, and Philosophy. For the rest of these subjects, these institutes are at a similar level. 

Science - BHU is slightly ahead for most of the science stream. 

Commerce - For commerce courses, DU is definitely better. 

Engineering - It won’t be fair to compare IIT BHU with DU. The former is way ahead of the latter. 

Management - FMS is a tier 1 B-School and arguably the best non-IIM school in the country. IMS BHU ranks nowhere near FMS. 

Law - For law degrees, DU has a slight advantage because of its location. 

Medical - IMS BHU is one of the best medical institutes in the country. 

Academics are more or less the same at BHU and DU. However, big names like St. Stephens, SRCC, LSR, etc. are a little ahead of BHU in terms of teaching quality. BHU offers better research facilities, especially for science courses. DU is way ahead of BHU in terms of corporate jobs and civil services. 

BHU offers a better campus experience compared to DU. But if we talk about location, choosing a metropolitan city, Delhi will be more advantageous. You will have greater exposure and opportunities

The video comprises a comparative analysis of both universities

If you are getting into one of the top colleges at DU. You should go for it. If you are getting an average college, it’s still better to prefer DU for Commerce, Economics and English. BHU science faculty is good. If you are interested in a Science degree, you can choose BHU.

Which is better, Delhi University or Mumbai University?

MU
Manish Upadhay Posted On : May 12th, 2022
M.A. in English (Hons.) from Mumbai University, Kalina (2017)

Delhi University is a better option. It is a central university, while MU is a state university. DU receives humongous funding from the central government. Naturally, it stands much higher than any state university including MU. It offers better education, infrastructure, and research opportunities. 

DU has hardly 100 affiliated colleges. So, it’s easier for the administration to make sure the education process is smooth. MU has over 1100 colleges. Handling so many colleges, hampers the fundamentals of education, at times. 

Overall, DU is more organized and offers better education and learning opportunities.
