Remarks

This is one of the best institutions of India and I'm proud to be here But there are many things to be improved. Like the infrastructure to be updated and also new hostels should be constructed. Also the management is mostly reluctant towards students issues. We have to protest to get our rights here.

Entrance Preview

I took JNU entrance exam and I scored 60 out of 100 and I opted because this is the best University in India for Economics

Course Curriculum Overview

5

The course here is good. Really good. It is more of theoretical than INA by other colleges like the Delhi school of economics. But the courses here are really enjoyable and we find some of the best and finest professors teaching here. I really enjoyed listening to them. In first year we had all 4 compulsory in first two semesters. And in atleast two semesters we could chose all subjects

Internships Opportunities

College doesn't provide an internship but there is a placement cell which provides the information of internships available and we can apply for them. Or sometimes there is an opportunity to work with the professors here in the college.

Placement Experience

3.5

Placement cell is good. And economics is the only department having placement cell. They are good and we have many opportunities but not as great compare to other Universities because this is a research oriented University and gives most preference to Higher studies

College Events

3.5

There are very few cultural events or festivals happening but there are many guest lectures, discussions, workshops and other events happening regularly. But there is also a very different kind of atmosphere in JNU which is filled with he students' movements which is famous nation-wide.

Fee Structure And Facilities

The fee here is very nominal. The concept here is to be inclusive even tot he poorest people. Apart from entrance fee we just have to pay 100-200 per semester for college and 2000-3000 for mess bill. Expect for this there is no other cost which would trouble students. It is a student friendly structure

Fees and Financial Aid

There are few scholarship for the economically weaker sections and I don't think loans are required for people in this University to pay loans. So scholarship are available and I know few people who have taken it.

Campus Life

4

The best part of JNU is there are more women than men here. This is one of the most progressive things in India. Which is why I like JNU. There is huge diversity in terms of different states, different religions, different countries, different languages, different backgrounds, and people from all over country come here. Extra curricular activities are also very good.

Hostel Facilities

4

The hostels though old built around 30-40 years ago are really comfortable and also give the whole feel of JNU. JNU hostels are famous for their liberal nature. JNU is one of the safest places in Delhi even at night. I feel that's because of the people and the hostels here. Mess food is better any day than for available in pgs

Alumni/Alumna

The alumni of JNU is spread over entire India rather world. This institution has produced some of the best scholars and leaders of the Country. They are very helpful in terms of supporting students or showing solidarity in issues with students

Exam Structure

The exams here are not very hectic. They conduct 2 exams in a semester. And it's equal weight age to both. But the thing here is there is lot of syllabus. Given the top University the professors obviously expect us to read more and learn more. But they are supportive and we can totally enjoy the exams too!

Admission

I filled up application form after notification was released in march and had to pay the fee. I have applied for two courses.Then wrote the entrance exam in may 2016. The list was out in July, to take admission I had to come to Delhi and follow the admission process here which took almost two days.

Faculty

Here in JNU we find some of the best and finest professors teaching here. I really enjoyed listening to them. I have always listened to their guest lectures. Not having them teaching class is a really amazing experience! I really love the professors here

Course Curriculum Overview:

For the course i must say that this is something everyone needs to study about even if it's for just a part. We have ethics, moral, cultural relativism and etc. In our syllabus and it all really help to make our thinking rational, to see World from that point of view from where one can see the clarity. It's really necessary for improvement in personality and making good decision. I think there's need for making this course more practical like teaching, we can teach students about essentials of philosophy for there betterment of decision making from an early age.

Course Curriculum Overview:

The course is very relevant and covers all the history topics comprehensively. The study material is very good as many upsc aspirants and students preparing for competitive exams refer it. Though the curriculum can be improved by limiting and only adding the essential topics in it. There is too much of unnecessary information which makes it difficult to understand at times.
