Delhi University will conduct the first entrance test for its four-year BTech course in humanities under the meta-college concept on Sunday (26 August 2012). More than 450 first-year undergraduate students of DU have registered for the one-hour test, which will start from 10am in Arts Faculty in North Campus, reports TOI.
The university announced the concept of meta-college in February this year, where students will be allowed to design their own course. Students who are currently enrolled in any regular full-time course at any DU college or with the School of Open Learning (SOL) and non-collegiate students are eligible to apply for the degree course.
The program, which will accommodate 40students, will be offered by the Cluster Innovation Centre (CIC) of the university from September this year. According to the admission schedule and notification, the entrance test will have 60 multiple-choice questions of 120 marks. There will be no negative markings. The test will be followed by interviews for 80 shortlisted students and the final merit list will be announced based on 160 marks (120 marks from the entrance and 40 from interview).
Under the Meta-College concept, the students will be allowed to choose the subjects and the college. For example, a student can study history in the first semester at X College and economics in the second semester at Y College. The students will also be able to specialize in any of the available subjects.
