M.Sc. Environmental Science form JNU. Is it worth?
Placements: There is no placement committee in JNU so there is no placement from the campus. None of my juniors or seniors got a job offer directly from the campus. Others had gone for either research or taken a job from naukari. Com. The basic pay was somewhat 20-23k in Delhi which is quite low in my opinion. No company visited the campus to place anyone. Mostly all my classmates had some kind of summer internship with them though None was in any company. They all were working in some other university or in the lab of JNU only.
Infrastructure: JNU has one of the best infrastructures and provides one of the best services in India. The hostels are now fully Wi-Fi equipped and there is a separate medical center for all minor ailments. There is a sports ground for all sports activities. The labs are good and hardly lack any funding. They have almost everything to complete your Masters here. The mess food is normal but the canteen food is good. It's more economical also. The hostels are good and are on twin sharing basis. I never had any complaint regarding the hostel.
Faculty: Most of the teachers are knowledgeable and are sincere towards the job they have been given. Almost all have Ph.D. from some of the best colleges in India. The teaching methodology used is mixed and combines various aspects. It is way different than B.Sc. The student to faculty ratio is low and must be around 10:1. We all had some kind of industrial exposure as mostly in the second year we used to go outside and collect samples for our work. The curriculum is a huge advantage if you want to do some research in this field.
