Good academic life and a better work life.
Placements: Bachelor of Foreign Languages serves as a course that not only offers an extremely detailed curriculum but also very attractive placements. Usually, most of the students from the department get placements right after their course finishes, and the rest pursue higher studies. The companies like Datamark, Amazon, and TCS recruit talented students with packages of around 6 LPA to 8 LPA. The course offers great internship opportunities as well as remote job opportunities.
Infrastructure: The best thing about AMU is how affordable it is and yet does not lack in providing all the required facilities. The Wi-Fi is available in departments as well as hostels. There is a public library which is open till 2 AM in the morning and reopens at 6 AM. There are computer labs, common rooms, study rooms, open reading areas, gym and yoga rooms in hostels. The food quality is good considering we pay only 1500 per month for it, the hostel fee is around 1000 a year. And we have scholarships for students who are financially weak. There are canteens in all hostels. A safe and comfortable environment is provided.
Faculty: The teachers of our department are highly educated and well-educated individuals; all of them have intrinsic knowledge of their field. They are also very good at their job and they make sure the students not only study, but get good jobs. The exams are moderately tough, questions are asked from the syllabus, and sufficient study materials are provided along with flexibility in internals.
Other: I chose this course as I was interested in foreign languages in general. French has great opportunities, and AMU has tie-ups with universities and companies, to ensure a safe work life. The department was inaugurated in 2015, we are always improving to the best of our limits. Of course, some work needs to be done on the infrastructure and curriculum, but the teachers are working towards it, and are willing to listen to students. The crowd of AMU is focused and extremely smart, there is always good competition. But no hostility at all, extremely helpful seniors who go to great lengths to help us. There is a Cultural Education Club which has clubs for debating, drama, music, etc. Naseeruddin Shah, a great actor, is a product of the same drama club and university.
