Course Curriculum Overview

3.5

I am doing my graduation in the Spanish language. The reason for taking this course was basically the popularity of this language. The center currently has about 170 students in total with 6 professors to guide them. All of the professors hold the degree of Ph.D. in the language and have got a good amount of experience even in foreign universities. The term papers were kind of hectic ( uneven schedule due to covid) in the first two years. But now everything is proper. The difficulty was average.

Fees and Financial Aid

Although the fee hike had a negative response which was obvious considering the percentage of increase. But as all the universities go, it is still safe to say that JNU is the cheapest of them. One can also avail of the mcm scholarship based on the yearly income of his/her family. Although there aren't any jobs that you get on campus, opportunities for freelancing are there for the students.

Campus Life

4

The campus doesn't organize an annual fest. But still, the days are quite eventful. One can always find cultural or educational events happening. The library is quite monstrous with thousands of books and ample space for self-study. The classrooms are equipped with the needed materials. JNU also organizes many sports events in which students compete as a team representing their hostels or centers. There are groups for poetry, dancing and singing, adventures, and many more run by the students.

Hostel Facilities

3

The size of the rooms is average with the basic necessities provided in it i.e. bed, cupboard, fan, table, and chair. Each hostel has its own mess with a menu that is very diverse. The quality of the food is ever-changing. One can avail of hostel facilities at a cheap rate of about 3000 a year. If one wants to rent a room, the nearest places are Munirka and Vasant Kunj.

Admission

The eligibility for the course is one should have passed the 10+2 exam. The application form came in the month of Feb and was valid till March. The fee was minimal ( about 250 rupees). The form was available on the official website as well as on different educational sites. The exam also follows the reservation terms which I availed i.e. category reservation (SC). The process was quite smooth.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course curriculum is something that can have improvements. For example I am studying C++ in my computer minor class which is becoming less and less relavent as compared to a lamguage like python. Alot of job prospects require students to know a language like R so I feel things like that should be taught so that the course cam make a student more real world ready.

Course Curriculum Overview:

My course requires a lot of analytical and logical thinking. The scope is quite wide in my course without having any professional degree too like research, analytics, finance manager etc. This course gives opportunity to gain applied skills and as we are dealing with quantitaive aspects our statistics also gets better with time. Few improvements which i would like suggest are that their should more practical and real life knowledge, currently it is very theoritically heavy. Teaching online softwares must be compulsoury so that we remain updated with technology.

Placement Experience:

Placements of my college are pretty good. The placement cell of my college is pretty active and facilitataes the placement process. Companies like Deloitte, EY and PWC often come to our college for placements with the average package being Rs. 8,00,000. After getting this degree, i will pursure another degree in MBA or I might also take a part in the placement process and pursue an MBA later. Students in semester 6 and further can take part in the placement process but there are internship fairs and summer internship programmes for students who are not eligible for placements

I have a keen interest in pursuing in Economics field as a career and hence my degree perfectly aligns with my career goals The curriculum is not very effective when we talk aboht the real world exposure however it is very good for further academic pursuits The curriculum could be a bit more practical based where we get exposure to the real industry as well. The exams are held twice in an year. The difficulty level is moderate
