    The placements, infrastructure and the faculty of the college are good.
    Placements: The placements are not the part of this curriculum, but I wish you have many offers for internships and jobs depend on your ability and performance. Instead, you have to do your best in JMI. Also, easily you can prepare for NET in this beautiful environment with this enthusiastic faculty.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the department of English is better than any other departments of the university. It has all modern facilities and other facilities that are required. You have a better place to explore with hundreds of trees around the campus and has thousands of beautiful flowers which are ready to welcome you.
    Faculty: The department has many renowned faculty members, and they are great in their field of interest. Apart from that, you have a variety of subjects and has CBCS subject in every semester that allows you to take one subject out of the department you want. JMI is the best place to learn and explore.
    Other: The department organises every festival with total enthusiasm and offers numbers of scholarships.

    I am dissatisfied with the Wi-Fi speed. I am very satisfied with the placements.
    Placements: I am satisfied with the faculty members of the college for teaching me. Faculty members in our college are good, and the entire college is also very good. A lot of courses are provided by this college. Placements are very good but not excellent because many of my friends do not get any placements from the college. But except for the placements, the whole college, faculty members, etc., are excellent.
    Infrastructure: There are many libraries, classrooms, and labs in our college. The Wi-Fi speed is not good, in my opinion. There are very good canteens, sports fields, etc. There are many kinds of sports programs, and many other types of programs are organised by the college.
    Faculty: The course curriculum and exams of the course are very good. Teachers in our college are well-qualified and knowledgeable. Semesters exams are a little bit tough but not much. I think tough papers are very easy for intelligent students.

    Q:   Is Jamia Millia Islamia good for M.Com?

    A: 
    {Source: M.Com students & alumni}

    Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI) - Is it Good for M.Com?

    Based on reviews from current students and alumni, here's what they say:

    * Placement Record: While the college claims to have a good placement record, the reality seems to be different. According to students, only about 20% of students get placed, with the highest package offered being INR5.5 LPA.
    * Recruiters: Companies like Samsung, Kotak Mahindra, DMI Housing Finance, and Acxiom visit the campus for placements, but the number of recruiters is relatively small.
    * Course Curriculum: The M.Com course is well-structured and covers finance, accounting, and purchasing, making students industry-ready.
    * Teaching Quality: Some students feel that the teaching quality could improve, while others appreciate the support and guidance received from faculty members.
    * Infrastructure: The college has a beautiful campus with modern infrastructure, including a large library, laboratories, and a sports complex.
    * Scholarships: JMI offers scholarships to deserving students, including the National Scholarship Portal (NSP).

    In conclusion, while Jamia Millia Islamia has its strengths, particularly in terms of infrastructure and course structure, the placement record for M.Com appears to be inconsistent. Prospective students should weigh these factors carefully before deciding whether JMI is the right fit for them.

    * Good reputation: Jamia Millia Islamia is a reputed institution, ranked within the top 15 universities according to the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) ranking.

    * Relevant curriculum: The course curriculum is relevant, covering all aspects of business administration, making students industry-ready.
    * Placements: Despite initial concerns about placements, the majority of students (around 90%) get placed in well-known companies, including top recruiters like TCS, Wipro, KPMG, ICICI, and Mahindra. The average salary package offered is around 4-5 LPA, with some students receiving even higher packages.
    * Infrastructure: The campus infrastructure is good, with modern facilities like air-conditioned lecture theaters, state-of-the-art libraries, and well-maintained hostels.
    * Campus life: The campus offers a range of extracurricular activities, sports facilities, and cultural events, creating a vibrant campus life.

    However, there are some areas for improvement, such as the limited research opportunities and the need for students to take initiative to find jobs.

    Overall, while Jamia Millia Islamia may not offer the perfect education, it seems to be a good option for those interested in pursuing a career in business administration.
