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:

It DU, so i think for many students it comes down to if you are able to make it to cutt off list. So my decision was based on it. I cleared the cutt off list for english hons so i took it. I wanted to make my way for govt job, so it was all about getting a degree regardless of what subject i was getting. I think curriculum just make you educated enough to get to know but its the college life that make you come face to face with the real world. exams every 6 months i.e every semester i think its good.

Course Curriculum Overview:

I really like Human Geography which let me to opt for this paper. Besides theory papers, we also have practical papers every semester through which we conduct surveys, interviews, research which helps us in preparing for the real world applications as well as further academic pursuits if we want to go in the field of Remote sensing or GIS. I feel that for papers including research or management, we should be showcasing how we can mitigate them or adapt in such scenarios and also make drafts for writing a research for further pursuits. However, as the time is limited it is quite understandable as to why its not conducted. We have two exams in a year and they are quite relevant and easy
