About
College :-
Maitreyi College was established by the Delhi Administration in July
1967. It is a constituent College of the University of Delhi.
The
College made its modest beginning in a school building in Netaji
Nagar. However, it has since made rapid progress both in size and
stature. Maitreyi started with a small staff of 10 teachers offering
only B.A (Pass) and B.Sc. (General) courses.
The
college bears the name of Maitreyi, an eminent sage and scholar
of ancient India who was the epitome of the perfect balance between
intellectual pursuits and womanly duties. Maitreyi, the wife of
Yajnavalkya, considered knowledge to be the only means of attaining
immortality and urged her husband to share his knowledge, rather
than his material possessions with her. Likewise, it has been the
objective of the college to produce balanced young ladies.
