The overall experience in college is very good and peaceful.
Placements: Students who show enthusiasm and are eager to get placement mostly get it. There are many internship opportunities. Sometimes, students get both paid and unpaid internships. Many good companies hire students from our university due to its reputation.
Infrastructure: There is free Wi-Fi for students who ask the head to share the password with them as they need it for their study material. Facilities are average, not very good, or very bad. As per the staff members, they are really helpful to students.
Faculty: Teachers are really helpful when students ask for help and they are good. They do not overburden students with work or study material. Each year we have 2 semesters that students need to pass to be promoted to the next year. Exams are not that hard to pass if we study wholeheartedly.
Other: I chose this course because I wanted to do more study of literature and get a good exposure to literature. Many fests are hosted monthly, which are enjoyed by the students.

Jamia Millia Islamia- Department of English .
Placements: We've formed a Placement Cell, especially for placement where we get to place in a lot of companies. And that placement cell is managed by some students and teachers. I have not had any placement yet as I'm not a final year student but I hope that I will get placements from this cell.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure of my course is exquisite. I love the portions and syllabus. We get an environment where we learn, grow and evolve. Don't know about hostels, I haven't been to college, still waiting for my college to get open so I can experience my offline classes for the very first time.
Faculty: Everything is nice. Our teachers are highly qualified. Recently our dean, Asaduddeen sir was called for a lecture in INALCO, Paris. We have given three exams till now and they all were conducted fairly. We love to be here. Waiting for the college to reopen asap.

Completely content with the teaching style, administration, and campus facilities.
Placements: The placement cell of JMI is weak, especially when it comes to a subject like English literature. Some bright students get offers from renowned newspapers for the position of a writer/editor, and many students are welcomed into book publishing houses.
Infrastructure: Though it's my second year, because of the pandemic the mode is online, and I have never got the chance to be in a hostel. But, I do have the access to campus, library, and canteen. I would rate that 5/5. The quality of food available in the canteen is good and hygienic.
Faculty: The professors are efficient, supportive, and cooperative, and the course is good. The questions asked in exams are from the portion which is being taught in the class. The course curriculum is relevant and interesting.
Other: English was something, and I wanted to pursue since I was a child. This subject has always fascinated me, and while I was applying for entrance, I thought why not pursue it at India's top central university.

Love being a part of JMI. Amazing atmosphere and the faculty are dedicated to the students.
Placements: As it is only my first semester, I don't really know the details about placements. But many of my classmates (including me) are very good at curating content whether by writing articles or editing videos or handling social media, and through this many of us have got offers from societies and clubs of the University. So I can safely say that we have good job opportunities for us, as content is very important for all the businesses.
Infrastructure: Jamia Millia Islamia has amazing high-speed 5g Wi-Fi available throughout the university for all of its students. The classrooms are clean and sanitary. The bathrooms have a sanitary pad dispenser, which comes in, which is very helpful. The library in the English department is top-notch and contains all the texts required for the course as well as material for some leisure reading too!
Faculty: The professors are generally nice and helpful, though strict at times. The teaching quality is amazing and easy to grasp. The course curriculum was beautifully curated - for example in our poetry paper, we had Shakespeare, Donne, Milton, Gray, etc. So a wide range of texts were taught. The exams aren't too difficult, but yes, you have to study sincerely for scoring good marks. However, the exams can be very lengthy, so you definitely have to improve your writing speed. The pass percentage is approximately 40%.
Other: Jamia Millia Islamia has so many amazing societies and clubs! I myself am a part of four societies, and I thoroughly enjoy every part of this experience. There is seriously no better place than JMI!
