    Jamia is love, captivating scenic beauty, affordable fee and knowledgeable faculty.
    Placements: The college has a record a minimum of 70% of the students got placed from the department of social work. JMI provides great placement opportunities to its students. NGOs like Pradan, SOS, Pravah, SPS, Tara Homes, etc., and CSR organisations like SEED CSR, Vedanta, etc., and social enterprises like Empower Pragati are some of the famous companies hiring the students from the department of social work every year.
    Infrastructure: Jamia has good infrastructure with free Wi-Fi facility to all students of all departments. Labs are well-equipped with all sorts of required equipment. The library is one of the biggest in Delhi and has varied study materials. Jamia sports complex has great facilities and holds tournaments from time to time to motivate students for sports. Food quality is good, but it not pocket-friendly.
    Faculty: Teaching quality of the faculty members for Bachelors is not at par compared with other central universities of Delhi. But in Masters, teaching quality of the faculty members are good. Teachers are not only knowledgeable but are visionary. They regularly check field visits to ensure students are conducting field visit properly, which is the one thing I really appreciate.

    Placement record is good. Surely, you will have a job in hand after course completion.
    Placements: Placements are good and you can expect good placements so there is no need to worry. The placement cell here is so active that you just need to focus on the course curriculum. The rest of the things will go in a smooth way. Jamia has good placement records in M.A social work over the years. A lot of NGOs visited the campus and hire the students on a good package. You can expect about 25,000 minimum per month. About 90% students got placed.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure is what you can expect from a good, reputed institution in the capital city. Jamia has got a very advanced library and got a large collection of books with 3 big reading AC halls which are furnished. Talking about hostel facilities, hostels are not easy to get because applicants are so much in number that it is hard to get the hostel. But the facilities in the hostel are up to the mark. Each hostel has got a separate reading hall and a good studying environment.
    Faculty: The total programme will have four semesters spread over 2 years duration with each semester comprising of 4 theory papers and one learning (field paper work). The faculty team was really helpful for solving problems faced by students. The field work gives a good exposure to the overall development of the students. You will get to know how it is to be done. There is a village camp organised for a week.

    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.

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.
