The university campus is beautiful and well-maintained, especially in the evening.
Placements: As a first-year student, I didn't know about it that much, but the companies that came for hiring were Wipro, IBM, TCS, Infosys, and Amazon. One more thing. The university provided Coursera and LinkedIn learning so that students could learn many things.
Infrastructure: There were lots of societies in the university that organized their own cultural and technical fests. The biggest fest in the Faculty of Engineering was organized by the Cultural Council, and at the university level, it was organized through the collaboration of the societies. The technical fests were also organized by the societies. For the engineering students, there was the faculty library and the central library, where most of the books and journals were available.
Faculty: There were two mid-semester exams and one end-semester exam, along with assignments and practicals. The course curriculum was relevant to the degree we were opting for. The faculty provided ample time to every student, giving extra time if a student was facing problems.

Jamia is ranked 6th in NIRF ranking 2021. It's also ranked 3rd in central universities.
Placements: Didn't know much about placement because it's going fully online for the past 1.5 years due to covid. I am fresher this year and didn't have any interaction with seniors too all because of covid. Biochemistry students get a decent package in the pharma sector. If you qualify NET then you are eligible for lectureship and Ph.D. fellowship.
Infrastructure: Infrastructure and laboratory are well maintained with all necessary equipment and machines. There are both boys and girls hostel with all necessary facilities like hygienic mess area, sports, canteen, neat and clean campus beauty parlour, and medical facilities.
Faculty: The course curriculum is designed to crack exams like CSIR, UGC NET, GATE, etc. CBCS system has been opted to design the syllabus. Professors are very humble and helpful with great knowledge of their field. All of them are from science research backgrounds who have completed their Ph.D. or postdoc from reputed institutions all over the world.
Other: I chose this course because of my personal interest but though it is a financial course so fees are quite high than other central universities. Campus and crowd are too good to enjoy and hang out. Many scholarships are provided under different schemes.

I am satisfied with the university.
Placements: Almost 40-50% of the students got placed. The salary offered is Rs. 20,000-30,000 per month. I am not interested in getting placements as I want to pursue higher studies. So I have very less idea about the placements scenario. Due to this pandemic, things are taking place online only.
Infrastructure: The environment of our department is very good, and it provides us with good vibes. Laboratories are well-equipped and maintained regularly, and classrooms are properly designed. I am not a hosteler, but I got to know from our colleagues that they provide food of proper quality with keeping in mind about the health of the students. The sports complex is very beautiful, and medical facilities are also provided here.
Faculty: Teachers are very kind and helpful towards the students. They not only help students regarding their course curriculum but also give their suggestions about further studies. They motivate every individual. Teachers don't do any kind of favouritism and unfairness. The course curriculum is highly relevant and makes students ready for further studies and work.

Loving memories in colggg.
Placements: Placement is average in M.Sc. because there is no such placement in biochemistry. It's about research in both government and private sector to help mankind in a better way. In other courses, placement is very good like in Mass communication, B.Tech, Diploma, and MBA.
Infrastructure: Excellent with 100% cleanliness. Free Wi-Fi also available. Labs are so clean and machines are so costly in the lab even some machines were not present in AIIMS. Jamia campus is very good with an auditorium and 18 canteens. The main campus has a good crowd with 2 main libraries which have Lakhs of books.
Faculty: Faculty is mindblowing they were very helpful in nurturing our life and also experienced faculty. Some faculty members are so popular because of there work in the research area. Faculty is so qualified from a reputed institution like IITs, TIFR, AMU, and IISc.
Other: Canteen food is not so good but outside campus there not much variety.
