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.

Very good placement for the current year (2025–2026). Cultural events happen almost every week.

Placements: In the 2025–2026 placement session, a very good number of students got placed in highly reputed companies. Most of my seniors got packages above 12–13 LPA, and some got placed off campus with the highest package of 40 LPA+. Top roles like software developer, etc., are offered during on-campus placements.

Decent enough college (according to the fee and all).

Placements: Decent enough placement if you take the fact into consideration that it is recently established, and also the fact that the faculty are not up to that mark. The highest on-campus package is around 18 LPA, and off-campus is 36+LPA. The median package of 2024 was 8 LPA, so yeah, it offers a decent package for what its fee is.

Our college is overall nice, and it's improving every year.

Placements: In my university, the School of Engineering is new, and it was started in 2018, the first batch graduated in 2022. So placement is average, but it's improving every year. Companies like IBM, S&P Global, Amdocs, Emphasis, Antino, etc., have come, and students were placed.

Good faculty members, not good placements.

Placements: Placements are quite low, considering we would be the 5th batch for a university that has a great name. Right now, for the 2027 batch, there are no companies that have come for an internship. So choose wisely, as placement reports aren't published.
