    I am very proud of my college and university and would love to see JNU achieve its lost glory again.
    Placements: The placements are pretty average but we have seen growth in recent times. The alumni network of the SCSS school, which provides one of the best MCA courses in the whole of India, is pretty strong and helps us BTech students too. Along with that, the supporting seniors are great and the environment is great to explore different fields, especially with the 0 attendance policy.
    Infrastructure: We still don't have our building made and are working on the building of SCSS but the construction work has started and we hope to see growth soon. The labs are quite good and the hostel provides the best they can at the boarding charges of 10 rupees per month.
    Faculty: The faculty is top-notch, thanks to the brand name of JNU and are very supportive. The 0 attendance policy is a big positive and we as students are allowed to explore different fields, along with optional ones from different schools like international relations and languages.

    Big campus, vibrant life, and great exposure from Jawaharlal Nehru University.
    Placements: Almost 75% of students got placed last year. In them, one person got 33 lakh per annum, and some of the guys got 16 LPA. Top recruiting companies like Infosys ,TCS ,Amazon , etc. Almost 95%of the students got internships last year because most of the people belong to ECE and CSE.
    Infrastructure: Hostel facilities are too good because in every hostel they will provide balconies,mess food is too good, and coming to infrastructure, it is quite good, not bad because it was an old campus, right. And coming to sports facilities, too many sports will be available; whatever you want, you can choose.
    Faculty: On coming to teachers, excellent staff because they are highly educated from top universities, NITs , IIITs, so we can get a lot of knowledge from them. Coming to the course curriculum, it was also nice because they are providing only CSE and ECE, so placements will be good. Coming to the difficulty of exams, it is not much difficult, and the pass percentage is 35%.
    Other: Choosing this college is only because of the branch, that is, ECE, because it has a lot of scope in the future. After our graduation, we can choose what side we want, whether software or hardware. Coming to fests, it is too good and there are too many fests. Scholarships are also provided.

    Not good for students who are seeking campus placement opportunities.
    Placements: The highest salary package offered is about 12 LPA. There's no need to worry too much about placement, it depends on students. It's more about students rather than a college or university. Around 20% of students got hired.
    Infrastructure: Whole campus is Wi-fi enabled, but the speed is quite poor. Campus has a great network overall, so we can access the internet on mobile phones. There are no fees for a hostel and dorms are provided for those students who are unable to get a hostel room from the institute.
    Faculty: Faculty members are not good. New staff lacks teaching experience and are unable to teach us without using PPT or handbook notes. Faculty members need to understand that skilled and qualified teachers are required for teaching.
    Other: If one wants to enjoy college life, this is the best college. There is no need to worry about anything, as there is a freedom for both boys and girls.

    Absolutely satisfied with the campus life, good placements in 2022, and exposure.
    Placements: Around 56% of students were placed in the corporate sector from the last passout batch, as around 29% opted for higher studies, 11% went for the government sector and the rest for start-ups. The average package is 11 LPA, the highest on-campus is 16 LPA, and the highest off-campus is 33 LPA.
    Infrastructure: 24x7 wifi is available everywhere on the campus. Labs are good. Classrooms are spacious and are air conditioned. The library is one of the best. The hostel fee is very low. The rooms are decent, food is average, canteens are good, and medical and sports are some of the best.
    Faculty: Yes, the professors are really very helpful; the majority of them have their PhDs from reputed institutes. There are frequent industry visits and the course curriculum is frequently updated. The semester exams are not that tough; only 4 to 5 % fail in those.
    Other: Well, at my rank, I wasn't getting EC in any NIT, so I thought, why not JNU? It has the best campus life. It has almost everything I can dream of, or one aspires to from a college, from freedom to a large campus to diversity and closeness to nature. JNU doesn't have fests, but there are events regularly organized by student unions or political organizations.
