M.A. in Politics (International Studies) - Batch of 2025

3Placements3Infrastructure3Faculty4Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

If you are into academia, then Jawaharlal Nehru University s a good-to-go.

Placements: For this course, there are no placement opportunities as such. Most of the students go either for UPSC and state competitive exams or Ph.D. Some will prefer joining as research associate in think thanks too. For internship, you have to find it yourself as the institution won't arrange internship for your from their side .

Infrastructure: Infrastructure of our school building is overall good except toilets condition. Hostel Infrastructure is moderate with several challenges. Food quality is good in comparison with other central universities in India. But again it depends on the hostel and mess management team.

Faculty: Course outline is amazing. Don't expect every teacher to be exceptionally well. But most of the teachers are good enough. Curriculum is not that hard. If you study consistently, there is nothing to worry. The course is less hectic compared to the course outline of Centre for Political Studies.

Best and honest review of Jawaharlal Nehru University.

Placements: Most of the students get placements in the final year of the degree. The average salary package offered was 6 LPA. MNCs and embassies offer jobs in my course. If we go for Master's studies, then we get the opportunity to study in foreign universities.

Infrastructure: Infrastructure is very good. Hostel food is very good and the menu is decided by the students. There is a health center for students, free of charge. There is also a stadium for every game. Every hostel has a separate badminton court.

Faculty: Faculty members are helpful, qualified, and knowledgeable. Quality of teaching is excellent. Curriculum is relevant. If regularly attend the classes, the exam is not tough. Pass percentage of every semester is 4 CGPA. This is the best university according to NAAC ranking.

Other: I am interested in languages, so I chose this course. Foreign teachers also come to teach us. Students should communicate with each other in their course language. There is no fest in JNU, but cultural nights of each state take place.

3Placements3Infrastructure2Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life2Value for Money

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.

Review of Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi.

Placements: There is a placement cell in the university. We receive placements from companies after completing our degree. The highest salary package offered was 7 LPA. Most of the students work in the government sector. Almost 90% of students from my college get jobs.

Infrastructure: We get 24/7 free Wi-Fi in the college and hostel as well. Labs are not in very good condition, some computers are not working properly. Classrooms are in very good condition and are clean. Library consists of 10 floors with an uncountable number of books. Quality of food in the mess and canteen is also good.

Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful and highly qualified. This course helps students improve their communication skills and prepares them to work in any foreign industry or country. Semester exams are difficult. Passing CGPA is 4.

Other: I love to learn foreign languages and work abroad, so I chose this course. There are proper events held for many things. For each state, there are organised events. Campus is very large and green. There are many options for extracurricular activities, such as the dance club, drama club, debating club, etc. Monthly scholarship is also given to all students.

The library is quite good, and the study material is updated with time.

Placements: After B2 level, that is after B.A. 3rd year, a student of the German language becomes eligible for a job in MNCs. There are opportunities in special agencies, embassies, and also you can teach in schools and colleges after B2. If you've done C2, then you can apply anywhere. There's no open placement facility on our campus.

Infrastructure: There are so many festivals like Holi, Deepawali, Durga Puja, Janmashtami, Saraswati Pooja etc. That we celebrate in JNU. Saraswati Puja is celebrated in January, Holi in March, Deepawali in October, November, and Janmashtami in August and September. There's a wider range of books in our library. The Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) library has over 500,000 books, plus audiovisual items and over 10,000 sprint journals. The library also offers online access to more than 20,000 journals. The library adds about 10,000 books each year based on suggestions from students and faculty. It also subscribes to around 1,000 journals and 1,000 serials that people often use to play in the sports complex of JNU. There are AC rooms, and we'll electrify the rooms. Fans, ventilation, and for presentations, there is well-availability of the equipment in every classroom.

Faculty: The ratio of faculty to students is approximately 1:30. Every batch gets quality education. There are also many exchange programs. One can go to another country by applying for scholarships. Then, the exam is conducted, and the students get funds from the same company. The faculty guides students with their best efforts. They teach us with their whole heart and knowledge. We can interact with the faculty whenever we have genuine issues or queries regarding the syllabus.

B.A. (Hons.) in Korean - Batch of 2025

1Placements3Infrastructure2Faculty5Crowd & Campus Life5Value for Money

Good environment, but lacks in infrastructure, and placements.

Placements: There is no placement cell at the college. So students have to look for their own future after completing their course by themselves. So, the university can improve in this area. Also, it needs to call a few companies to fill their requirements.

Infrastructure: The facilities available are outstanding. Students have access to the library, Wi-Fi, and healthcare for free. Also, the fee for the course and hostel is negligible. The quality of the hostel is very poor, as they do not even provide basic facilities, and the food quality is the worst.

Faculty: Many faculty members lack teaching skills; many start telling their own stories; many are self-centric; and only a few of them are really interested in teaching the subject allotted to them. This is the area in which the university needs to work the most.
