B.Tech. in Computer Science and Engineering - Batch of 2029

3.0Placements4.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money

Absolutely satisfied because of faculty, good placements in 2025, and good infrastructure.

Placements: In recent years there were very few placements from the School of Engineering, Jawaharlal Nehru University. But this years I saw a rapid rise in the placements from SOE. Our seniors and professors have really worked hard to see growth in the placements cell. This year over 40-50 percent of students got placed and others moved to do their Master's. The average package is what we see on the website. It is true. Top recruiters are IBM, Antino, Emphasis, S&P Global, and many more. Internship percentage is also good almost 60-70 percent.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is really good, even though we have our temporary building it has really good infrastructure. Maybe after 1-2 years we will be studying in our permanent building which is almost ready. Every student has Wi-Fi access based on the ID and password that the college provided to them after taking admission. The labs and library are also very good. The food quality of the hostel is average not so good not so bad it is average. Every year we have our sports and cultural event aswell. It motivates us.

Faculty: Teachers are really very supportive. They have very good knowledge of their subjects. Even our teachers are capable of teaching multiple subjects but due to this sometimes they struggle to make us understand but their knowledge and qualifications are amazing. This course is curriculum relevant and it makes us industry-ready. There are many subjects, which are different from our industry but they serve as a backup plan. Semester exams have their own hardness and easyness aswell. Exams are really not tough. Everyone can score good marks in them. But also it's not that easy.

Other: I am a CS student at SOE, JNU. And it is really great to have a CS branch. The best thing about my course is that you can program anything you want. Data Structure, Data Science, etc. Make it more complex but amazing also. Batch is really supportive in any manner. The main thing about that course that should be involved is the girls' quota. We should have a girls' quota in our course because in our course there are only 3-4 girls and the rest are boys. This is the drawback. We also have Hackathons, sports, and cultural fests.

4.0Placements3.0Infrastructure3.0Faculty4.0Crowd & Campus Life3.0Value for Money

It has bad infrastructure. Facilities are good. Placements are average.

Placements: This year, 85 percent of students got placed. The highest package offered is 33 LPA. The average package offered ranges from 10-11 LPA. The lowest package offered ranges from 5-6 LPA. The Amdocs company hires students from the college. Students are getting internships from the start of the 2nd year, and they perform well in all aspects. The software engineer role is mostly offered in our courses.

Infrastructure: The building is still connected for the B.Tech course, but we have our temporary building where our regular classes go on. There is a separate building for labs. Wi-Fi is available in the academic buildings and also in hostels. There is a huge library in our university. There are many canteens situated across the campus. The health centre is available. It has a big stadium for sports activities. It has many courts for badminton and volleyball in many hostels.

Faculty: Our professors are well-qualified and helpful. They have a lot of knowledge. The course curriculum is relevant and fulfills all industry requirements. Semester exams are not too difficult but not too easy. Students who study regularly can secure good marks.

Other: I chose this course to study Electronics and Communication Engineering, which gives me knowledge of both electronics and programming. If more practical knowledge and new lab equipment are given, then it can become better. Events and programs are regularly held in the university.

Our engineering department is new, and this allows us to build it with passion.

Placements: This year, placement was about 85% according to the dean. Our placement cell is trying its best to provide students with good placement opportunities and continuous support throughout the placement process. The top recruiting companies are IBM and Infosys. Our campus average placement package is about 8-10 LPA. The off-campus placements are more.

Infrastructure: Our School of Engineering building is still in its construction phase, and it is expected to open in 2027 for lecture and academic purposes only. Currently, our classes are held in temporary lecture halls that have facilities such as air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and projectors. The hostels are two-seater and provide basic facilities such as Wi-Fi and water coolers. The quality of food is average. The university also provides medical facilities. For sports, there is a stadium available.

Faculty: Teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good. The course curriculum is relevant, and the institute tries its best to make students industry-ready. The semester exam quality is of average level. We will be very happy to see you here.

Other: The campus life of JNU is excellent. There are always ongoing programs in campus. The best thing about JNU is its election. Election time is best for enjoyment. They also host events like hackathons, etc.

3.0Placements5.0Infrastructure5.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money

I am satisfied with my college, and students with a poor economic background can study here.

Placements: There are no campus placements. Students have to give interviews and get jobs. There is a placement cell of JNU, but it is not working properly. In a foreign language course, students study hard and become proficient, and then they can get a job in a multinational company easily. Seniors help their juniors in getting a job and guide them properly on how to prepare for interviews, additional skills required for a corporate job, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and hostel are good. There are 18 hostels in JNU. All hostels are named after the name of the river. Some hostels are co-ed, some are not. But all hostels are attached to a mess. The food quality in the mess is good. The health centre is also there. 24x7 services are also available here.

Faculty: Professors take the course exam very seriously, as students are given an exam of UPSC. There is no scope for cheating in Korean courses. But there is some leniency in optional courses. Answersheets are checked thoroughly. Nobody can claim that I have given fewer marks. All students are satisfied with their grades if they study hard. In this course, professors also teach students about placements and guide them properly.

B.A. (Hons.) in Arabic - Batch of 2026

4.0

1.0Placements5.0Infrastructure4.0Faculty5.0Crowd & Campus Life5.0Value for Money

A really warm and welcoming college.

Placements: None of us has got any placements yet, and nobody is expecting either. After completing this course, we can either be a tutor or a translator if we have taken our studies very seriously, but from what I see by the end of B.A. in Arabic, nobody is capable enough to become a translator or join companies. There are no recruiting companies, and no packages are offered.

Infrastructure: Classrooms are huge and sunlit. There are no ACs and just fans. There are projectors in every classroom. We have a reading room on the ground floor. The library is usually too crowded at all times. It has AC and heaters too. Available books are not useful for B.A. students, and they are there for PhD scholars. Electricity and water facilities are free. Wi-Fi is available in classrooms, the library, and hostels. There is a gym in every hostel. The food served is clean and delicious, and better than most other places. Hostel fee for six months, which is around Rs. 1,700. Mess fee for only girls' hostel is Rs. 2,500, otherwise, it is Rs. 3,500.

Faculty: Teachers are motivating and always open to help. They tried different methods of teaching to engage students, but some skipped classes all semester. Some teachers made the subject more difficult to understand because they are not good at teaching. The best thing about this center is that it feels like home because professors are very kind. The course curriculum is good. Professors also provide us with supplementary books. Exams are neither easy nor difficult. The pass percentage is 98 percent if we don't count students who change courses in the first year.

Other: The subject is easy for me, so I chose this course. If we are informed about the career options early in the course, then it would have motivated students to do better. The campus life is very colorful. There are political parties, protests, marches, movie screenings, and poster making. There is a huge stadium. There are hip-hop, kathak, yoga, and taekwondo classes too. We celebrate Christmas, Holi, Diwali, iftar, and Eid. The campus looks very beautiful in every season. It's like living in a forest, with deer, foxes, procupines, fireflies, bats, peacocks, etc.

B.A. in Korean Studies at JNU.

Placements: Basically, if you are very good at the Korean language, you can get a decent job in the private sector. There is no placement cell right now, but it will be there in the upcoming few years. You need to make connections on LinkedIn and get placement on your own. Our alumni help a lot in securing a good position.

Infrastructure: The course is excellent. Books are updated, and they are designed to current market trends. Our professors update our course every semester with market trends. The hostel is decent; with the hostel fees, it is excellent. There are some old hostels that have some issues, but they are under renovation.

Faculty: Teachers are exceptional. They are very friendly and helpful. They all have experience in Korea, so they are almost equivalent to native speakers. The curriculum is good. You will have ample time for your self-studies. Regarding exams, we have 2 sessionals in which you have to pass at least 1 and then the end semester.
