Teachers are friendly and supportive.
Placements: Placement at JNU College is good. Companies like D. E. Shaw, Deloitte USI, Ernst & Young, McKinsey & Company, Boston Consulting Group, Accenture, Genpact Risk Consulting LLP, Brain Capability Network, and TriVista, but also forged new relations with companies like Bank of America, Sattva Consulting, and Mother Dairy, have visited 135+ companies and offered an average of INR 6.02 LPA. Placement session 2020–21 was a great success. During this session, a total of 131 students from diverse academic backgrounds were placed via cell. Roughly 5–7% of students get placement. I plan to prepare for the civil service exam.
Infrastructure: For the new students, you will first receive DORMATIORY from the university administration. And after some months, you will receive hostels according to your rank. In your room, you will receive a bed, a chair and a table, which are basic needs for a student. The availability of electricity and water is 24 hours a day, and a water cooler is available in all hostels and in winter for hot water. All hostels have their own mess with a fresh meal and at the end of every month, you will also receive a special dinner. The quality of the food is very good. Every day you will be served a new meal and every month the menu of the mess is changed and you will enjoy a good and healthy meal daily. The mess bill for every month is between INR 2,000 and INR 3,000. And about the hostel, in one room, two students can live easily. It is a very decent room. If we go outside the university area, the cost of a room is INR 8,000–10,000 per month in Munirka and Buddha Vihar. And the hostel fee is nominal—120 rupees per year.
Faculty: The teachers were very helpful. They provided us with great lessons and the practical classes were very helpful. I want solid-state physics here and hope to be a teacher in the near future. There are two special streams for masters in physics: astrophysics and solid-state physics. I opted for the second one. I hope I can be a good teacher in the near future with all the experience I gathered from my college days.

Review of Jawaharlal Nehru University.
Placements: Our college provides placements in very few companies. A large number of students want to pursue Ph.D. or go for a job and some like to join the industry. Remaining students prepare for UPSC. Alumni of our university are doing well across the globe.
Infrastructure: Buildings are good, but the hostel condition is slightly bad. It must be repair or rebuilt. Free Wi-Fi is provided with a good network speed. There are two types of libraries, school library and central library. Some reading rooms are open 24x7. Lab equipment quality is the best.
Faculty: The course curriculum is good but could be better with some industrial exposure.
Other: Our university is one of the top-ranked universities. Faculty members are the best with good education and great standard. Students can learn and explore many things beyond their studies. The faculty members are very helpful and encouraging.

Very much satisfied with the environment of our university and facilities.
Placements: The college is great. One of my close friends got a job in KV in Delhi, and the starting salary is 60,000 per month, which is pretty good. It will increase with time. The highest package offered is around 1.2 lacs per month. The average salary is 50,000-70,000 per month.
Infrastructure: The infrastructure is one of the best. A library, reading hall, hostels and mess facilities are good. Unlike most of the university hostels, the food in our mess is pretty good. Wi-Fi service is good but can't be said uninterrupted. Labs are remarkable.
Faculty: The teachers are well qualified and very helpful with the research work and personal issues that students face in the beginning phase of hostel life (homesickness) etc. The curriculum in this course can be said a little outdated, but I think the basics are the same. The exams aren't very easy and can be said to be on the difficult side if you haven't studied properly.

Professors are highly supportive.
Placements: None of the students got placed in our course, but many students got an internship from our course. I never heard about any placements offered before in our department. It can be the disadvantage of being a part of this course. Top roles are also not offered here.
Infrastructure: Wi-Fi connectivity is available all over the campus. Labs are equipped with all needy instruments with good working condition. Classrooms are well-maintained with air-conditioners and fans. Hostel facilities are also good. Medical facilities are very helpful for sick students.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful, highly qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good, and they use to make the class interactive with presentation and quizzes. Discussion during the presentation is helpful. The course curriculum makes students industry-ready.
Other: I have chosen this course because life sciences make us explore more many courses than others. Events and fests are great, and the campus crowd is also good.

Our college is very nice to achieve success.
Placements: In our college, M.Sc, M.A, CA and all kinds of courses are available, which charge the fee of about Rs. 30,000 per year. Many alumni of our college are in top-ranked colleges.
Infrastructure: In the mess, good quality breakfast and lunch are served. In the hostel, bubble bed facility is available, and all facilities are very nice. There was a very nice structure for studies. I was a leader in our hostel, and no one from outside will come to the hostel to disturb your study. The hostel is nice for all students, and I will suggest you to stay in it.
Faculty: All the teachers here are highly qualified in their own subject, and they are aware of the students' study and syllabus. They always motivate students, and they all are doing their jobs well. They all are highly talented and smart. They separately teach academically weak students and make them well educated.
Other: I have chosen this course as it is very nice, and it builds my career and provides me with knowledge. Our college provides scholarships to talented students. We will study hard for that, and there is a student union centre also to express our opinions.

Nearly 95% of the students get an internship in different pharmaceutical companies and industries like Alkem, Mankind, Patanjali, Dabur etc.
Infrastructure: Our department is occupied entirely by Wi-Fi, library, labs and classrooms. The central government of India is funding the college. It's one of the cheapest institutes of country for M.Tech Biotechnology. The hostel is fantastic. The food available at the mess with a reasonable price and also maintain quality with hygiene. We also have a medical centre on campus.
Faculty: JNU has one of the best teachers in the country. They have in-depth knowledge in their respected field of works. Thee teaching quality is up to mark. The course curriculum is not only relevant, but it's the best curriculum for biotechnology. It makes every single student industry-ready.
Other: I chose this course because I completed my B.Sc in Biotechnology. Biotech let you work as a researcher and scientist. We need some more facilities regarding placement. Many events and fests take place in this college to have some quality time. Our university is a closed campus, so it is good. Extracurricular activities like sports and cultural meets are organised from time to time every year.
