Good college if you are dedicated for your studies.
Placements: On behalf of current placement status of batch 2020 - 2022 about 85% of students got placed with an average package of 6.5 LPA, though our own placement has also started a week before and some big tech are on the board for recruitment. So if you are skilled and confident enough, that wouldn't be hard for you to crack the placement.
Infrastructure: Talking about the infrastructure, as we are studying online I didn't visit campus that much but on basis of my one or two visit I can say that department buildings are still old fashioned but properly maintained, talking about lab and library I don't have any idea about them as I never went there.
Faculty: If you look with relevancy perspective then course curriculum is very good. It covers all basics to advance of Computer Science but if you just wanna pass exam than it won't be easy because the level of semester exams in jamia is comparatively tough.

It has the best faculty members and average placements. It is value for money.
Placements: As per the records and information from seniors, around 80% of students got placed in 2021. The average salary package offered is 7 LPA, and the highest salary package offered is 15 LPA. An internship is hard for students enrolling in 2 years MCA curriculum, as managing syllabus, placement preparation, and internship altogether is tedious. Roles like SDE and web developers are offered here.
Infrastructure: It is NAAC A+ accredited university. It has a central university. It has the best infrastructure. The campus is huge. Classrooms are good, and labs are great too with air-conditioned and up-to-date computers. The campus is beautiful. There is a shortage of hostels, and only a few selected students get it.
Faculty: The best thing about JMI is faculty members. Faculty members are top-notch. Starting from the admission procedure, I never went through such a fluent and friendly admission procedure. They are helpful and supportive. They are always cheering up students. The course curriculum is good but not great. It is totally understandable as they have to shrink the course from 3 years to 2 years recently. Exams are moderately difficult, even in online mode.
Other: Except for the self-financing seats, fees of all other courses for general seats are so low. Even a university offering distance or online learning mode charges more than that. There are literally 0 charges after you pay the yearly fees as everything is included in the yearly fees already. The institute's name is reputed, and everyone knows it for good.

Majority of companies come for Software developer and web developer's role but a few companies for data scientists' role.
Infrastructure: Jamia has a central Library which is very big and also departmental library in each department. Labs are well-equipped. Entire campus is Wi-Fi enabled. But classrooms are not that good in some departments because some buildings are very old. There is shortage of hostel rooms especially for boys. There are many canteens which provide affordable food. Mess' food is also good. Sports and awesome facilities are awesome.
Faculty: Faculty is not that good. However all of them are well qualified. Indeed they are helpful. But overall teaching quality is below average. Course curriculum is according to the latest trends in the industry. Semester exams are really tough in Jamia.
Other: Fests happen every year. Jamia has well transport connectivity - Metro and bus both. Campus is clean and green. Many Scholarships are provided like AAJMI, JTA etc.
