M.A. in Economics - Batch of 2025

A journey one can choose while preparing for competitive exams.

Placements: Well, placements are not done in this course. Most students are preparing for competitive exams on their own. In Lucknow University, only few courses have placement process type thing like geology and all. But other courses don't have any placement team or processes.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is good. Mess is good. University canteen is best place to hangout, and there are plenty of them. Library is there even department has it's own library other than the Tagore library, which is open for all the students of economics only.

Faculty: I think faculty members and curriculum are good and up-to-date. There is no exam pressure, you can chill a lot also if you want to and by choosing right electives you can definitely become more industry-ready and can get a job outside of the economics field.

Other: Well, if you are involved then definitely you can enjoy the whole atmosphere of university. Many competitives and fests do happen. There are less restrictions as compared to colleges, you can be mature and have fun on your own. Freedom is there to grab.

Review of University of Lucknow.

Placements: The placement in our course is not up to the mark but the placement rates in other courses like B.Teach is far better than ours. Their placement rate is much better and companies also comes for the placement. The average package that students get is 3 LPA - 4 LPA.

Infrastructure: The infrastructure of our courses department and hostel is fine. In the library, the books are of high quality and good authors are available. The books are available in hindi and english also the library which is beneficial for students of english medium as well as hindi medium. The quality of the food available in the mess and canteen is also good and taste is also fine in the hostel.

Faculty: Teachers are highly qualified and skilled. They have to pass the UGC NET exam to teach at the university. They are also very helpful to the students. The semester exams are of average standard. Approximately 70 - 80% of students passed exams and the rest of the students gave their back exams.

Other: I selected the masters in economics because I was interested in the economy of the country. This course helps you in better understanding of the economy of the world which is the very important aspect in today's world. This scholarship is provided to general, OBC, SC and ST students and also to the EWS students.

Honesty, no lies—that’s LU.

Placements: To be honest, I have no idea about this because, in my course, there is no placement. Because of teacher disengagement, they are not at all interested in telling you. Not even they provide internships. In the name of internships, they ask you to make files.

Infrastructure: Very old infrastructure because of the old campus, that's why everything is built in an old way. But yes, the washrooms are also dirty—only teachers' washrooms are clean. There are many libraries in the university, but as I said again, old infra. I don't know about hostel life because I am not in a hostel. Thank you.

Faculty: In my course, teachers are a little bit arrogant. And they are a little bit overconfident. They don’t treat students in a good way. They talk sometimes very badly. I have faced it once, so I know how it feels. But it's okay. They are not too supportive, although some of them are very good.

Other: Overall, the college is good, but my course is not that good.

Review of University of Lucknow.

Placements: For masters in economics there is no such opportunity like getting placed or anything, although the University of Lucknow does offer placement in courses like MBA but in economics you'll not get any sign of direct placement in the history of Lucknow University.

Infrastructure: Lucknow University has better infrastructure if we compare it to other government colleges in the state or city; it has proper air-conditioned libraries with unlimited access, as well as computer systems to help you out with your studies. Classes, labs, everything is in quite decent condition.

Faculty: Here you won't get any problem with faculty, as university selects professors from the top universities of India Course structures are not up to par if we compare it to those of the University of Delhi or JNU. Semester exams here are no big deal. You just have to go through class notes and that'll be enough to pass the semester exams.

Other: I chose to pursue this course because I had an interest in economics and selected this college because that was the last best thing available among all the deserving institutes. The course curriculum and the entrance exam should be up to the mark .

Infrastructure: Yes, there were good classrooms and libraries. It's a well-equipped university with modern infrastructure that can enhance the learning environment, research capabilities and student comfort. This university plays a vital role in enhancing the overall college experience for students.

Faculty: Yes, teachers are knowledgeable; some are the best and some are good. They provide valuable insights, guidance and support to students in their journey. The teachers at the university are highly qualified in their respective fields and are passionate about imparting knowledge to students.

Other: For me, geography is a very interesting subject. Actually, I was preparing for civil services examinations when I realized it was really a good subject to learn and geography helps you understand the world around you by exploring relationships between people, place and the environment. It allows you to learn about different landscape and global issues such as climate change, urbanization and natural disasters. And it also opens up diverse career opportunities in fields like urban planning, environmental management and research.
