A glimpse to JNU - A HOME .
Placements: In 2023, the average package offered to UG graduates was Rs. 8 LPA, and to PG graduates, it was Rs. 9.50 to Rs. 10 LPA. Top recruiters included Cradlepoint, Optum, and Salesforce. There are a lot of internships for students provided by the Russian embassy and ambassador managers.
Infrastructure: Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) in New Delhi, India, has many facilities and infrastructure, including a central library. It is a nine-story building with a carpet area of 100,000 square feet. It has a collection of books, periodicals, journals, newspapers, and e-books. There are several hostels and residential quarters for students, faculty, and non-teaching staff.
Faculty: Teachers are very well-qualified. They have done their Ph.D. and also have teaching experience. My course is very demanding in this era, and it makes it easier for foreign tourists to explore India. College exams are not difficult, but there are 4 exams in each semester.
Other: The reason to choose this course is that JNU offers only foreign languages in its undergraduate program, and I chose the Russian language because of my affection towards it. Students with low family income (less than 2.5 Lacs) are given a scholarship of 2000 per month.
