Remarks

It's the best place to study English. The faculty is great. The library is fully equipped to help you in every way. There are no rules as such, you can let your creativity fly. The hours of college are v good and you can attend many seminars and conferences even after attending classes. The college itself organises many such seminars. These will help you to dwell more into the subject. If you love english, this place is for you.

Course Curriculum Overview

The course is v poorly structured. It's v outdated. We're just studying what others have been for years now. The course needs to be updated, or else the university will loose it's rank. Other universities study dope topics like the different waves of feminism and we are still stuck with Renaissance. Italian one and Spanish one and English one. I feel we often miss out the socio political environment part of the text which basically inspired the whole text. This makes the course drab and boring and you end up learning stuff just to pass.

Placement Experience

2.5

Companies like Star India, Zee networks visit our dept. Telegraph and other newspaper agencies visit us too. Content writing firms visit us. A pay of max 30k a month can be expected.

College Events

4.5

Campus life is great. There is always something going on in college. So you can pursue whatever interests you. But you need to have friends to enjoy this. Finding friends in JU is all about luck. If you are lucky you will be in a dept which has good people and you'll make friends. However if you're in the English dept or Economics dept then you're probably going to be alone and not go to any of these activities. Unless you're a junkie. Then you'll go to everything

Campus Life

The department library is really good. But the librarian so v v bad. I swear you would want to punch her brains out. She is supposed to maintain silence in the library and its always she who screams the loudest on the phone. Other facilities are okayish. Except the bathrooms. They are terrible. If you use the dept bathroom for 3 yrs, you will get UTI. Pls find alternatives.

Placement Experience:

Yes, there is a placement cell at the university campus. It conducts placement related activities and programs for the students. Students are eligible for the campus placement from the 5th semester. Some companies visit the campus to hire the students. Some of the companies are E&Y, SAP, Deloitte, TCS and they have made total approximately 40 offers out of 100 students. The highest and average package of our university is 28Lakhs and 5-6Lakhs for the role of SDE. The percentage of students getting placements if about 40-45%. The seniors told me that the companies offer good packages to the students. I am in my second year so I do not have much information about it. After completing degree from this university, I'm thinking to appear for GATE examination as I want to do my Master's from IIT's.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I would rate the course curriculum in terms of relevance as moderately relevant.My decision to choose this course was primarily influenced by its research learning facility and practical based learning.The curriculum helps each individual to prepare for further comepetitive exams and expanding their jobs option with full and profound knowledge of data based works and computer skills.To enhance the course curriculum and teaching methods , I would suggests dedicating deep learning with lots of real life examples, updating the syllabus to recent advancements Providing recorded lectures would be of so much help and providing more opportunities for students to present their work giving them detailed feedback would improve the skills and learning capacity of the students.
