B.A. (Hons.) in Chinese - Batch of 2029

3Placements4Infrastructure4Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Jawaharlal Nehru University from my view.

Placements: There is no campus placement but seniors and professors have some contacts through which you can get placed but don't completely rely on that also. There are various student exchange programs so from that you can get a chance to visit the country of your subject language and get to know the culture and people.

Infrastructure: Campus size is 1,100 acres full of forest vibes and full of animals and beautiful birds. Infrastructure is decent as it is 60 years old in a polluted city like Delhi we are literally living in a paradise. But also due to many posters of political parties sticking everywhere, it feels kind of ugly.

Faculty: It is up to the line in my batch, there are few foreign nationals from Korea and Japan, you can get an idea of quality of education. Some professors are also inclined towards a specific political ideology so if you want good grades then stay away from politics.

Other: It is the best college for foreign language enthusiasts in India.

M.Sc. in Physics - Batch of 2024

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

It is the best university for the M.Sc. in Physics course.

Placements: Our college has excellent placement statistics and about 90-95% of students get placed. The maximum salary package ranges from 15-30 LPA, and the minimum package ranges from 2-7 LPA. The average salary usually ranges between 11-20 LPA. Top recruiting companies for our course include ISRO, BARC, TIFR, etc. About 85% of students got internships. Roles offered include research scientist, data scientist, etc.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure and facilities provided by the college are very good. Each student gets a Wi-Fi limit of 10 GB per day and in the computer science room, it is unlimited. Labs and classrooms are large and well-maintained. Every student is assigned a senior mentor who helps them with any problems during the first year. Hostel food quality is really terrible.

Faculty: Teachers are well-qualified, knowledgeable, and supportive. The teaching style could be a bit better. Studies are conducted with careful consideration of appropriateness. The content taught in courses involves a technical concept. Testing is easy, and just relevant knowledge from the text is required. The pass percentage is more than 70%.

If one has no option, then come to this college.

Placements: It is my first year but I know seniors who got placements last year with salary package of 10 LPA. The highest salary package offered is 33 LPA, but it was an off-campus placement. I also know a second-year student who is doing an internship at MNIT Jaipur and has received offers for an internship from IIT Delhi.

Infrastructure: The course and hostel infrastructure available here are very bad because there is no building for classes on this campus. We have been living in a dormitory for four months and have not been assigned a hostel. New hostels and buildings for engineering students are under construction.

Faculty: Some teachers are very helpful but others are not. Teachers have very little experience but their qualifications are good, though not 100%. Semester exam level is normal and some teachers give questions directly from notes. Pass percentage is approximately 85.

Other: I want to share that if one really wants to do computer science, try not to come to this college. If one has no option, then one can come.

M.A. in Politics (International Relations) - Batch of 2025

5Placements5Infrastructure5Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Highly satisfied to be part of JNU. Highly recommended.

Placements: I have been part of the JNU Placement Cell, and they have helped students secure positions at Sushma Swaraj Institute of Foreign Services, NITI Aayog, and other think tanks, with competitive salaries and prestigious roles. Not only that, but companies also visit for hiring HR and other administrative staff roles.

Infrastructure: There is a 24/7 library where you can study, along with access to round-the-clock Wi-Fi. The classrooms are world-class, providing exposure to top-notch facilities at every corner. The hostel mess offers quality food at very affordable prices, and there is a health center where you can get medical attention at no cost.

Faculty: Faculty members are very student-friendly, and students can approach them easily. The curriculum is flexible, with two exams—one mid-semester and the other at the end of the semester. Students are also required to present their papers. The teachers are highly qualified, including names like Nivedita Menon and Rajesh Rajgopalan, among others.

Other: You are regularly updated about events, festivals, and other activities.

Great campus life with excellent learning experience.

Placements: Its a foreign language course, and one can not have many expectations regarding jobs. But one thing is for sure if one knows how to have a conversation in a language. He can become an interpreter. There are also jobs regarding translation as tour guides. Freelancing can be a good option. One can expect a maximum of 4 LPA- 5 LPA. Minimum 2 LPA-3 LPA are offered. There is no official data so I can't provide exact data.

Infrastructure: There are 18 hostels, all equipped with mess facility bills ranging Rs. 2500 to Rs. 3500. Classrooms are in good condition some have ACs most don't. There are also gyms in many hostels. There is a stadium. There is a fully equipped health center all for free. Canteens are there in every building with nominal prices.

Faculty: Professors are qualified and friendly. The teaching quality is excellent. There are 2 semesters, monsoon and winter, with 2 or 3 sessional exams and end sem. Course curriculum is up to date. There are many interactive sessions with Russian teachers and authors. Semester exams maintain a good level, pass percentage is better as the sessional passes by.

Other: This course is a good option if one is thinking of doing something different. I mean learning a language while in college will help you later get a job, which sounds good. If you get languages like Japanese, Korean, or Chinese packages are good, between 10 LPA-15 LPA. Some things can be improved like having more modern equipment for learning a language like language labs which are there in some languages not in most. All year many events happen that keep students engaged. The campus crowd is excellent everyone is interesting. Campus is in South Delhi good for connectivity. The campus is lush green with nilgais.

Not good for students who are seeking campus placement opportunities.

Placements: The highest salary package offered is about 12 LPA. There's no need to worry too much about placement, it depends on students. It's more about students rather than a college or university. Around 20% of students got hired.

Infrastructure: Whole campus is Wi-fi enabled, but the speed is quite poor. Campus has a great network overall, so we can access the internet on mobile phones. There are no fees for a hostel and dorms are provided for those students who are unable to get a hostel room from the institute.

Faculty: Faculty members are not good. New staff lacks teaching experience and are unable to teach us without using PPT or handbook notes. Faculty members need to understand that skilled and qualified teachers are required for teaching.

Other: If one wants to enjoy college life, this is the best college. There is no need to worry about anything, as there is a freedom for both boys and girls.
