Only 2 DU colleges offer Psychology for boys!
17-year-old Amit Kumar wants to pursue BA (Hons) in Psychology from Delhi University, but after he learnt about the limited choices in hand, he has changed his mind.
Psychology (Honours) is offered only in two co-education colleges across DU — Keshav Mahavidyalaya and Zakir Hussain College. The same course is offered in seven girls’ colleges including Lady Shri Ram College for Women.
Describing boy’s plight, Akash Gupta, a student counsellor, said, “A lot of boys want to know about the availability of Psychology (Honours) in the college of their choice but most choose for other courses when they come to know about the lack of options.”
Many boys leave the course after joining as they feel left out in a class full of girls,” said Manmeet Sidhu, another student councellor. Applied Psychology (Honours) is also available in only two co-ed colleges – Sri Aurobindo College (Evening) and Bhim Rao Ambedkar College.
