What Students Say
Likes
- Course Affordability: Relatively, fee structure is less. This gives us the opportunity to be in a Central University without thta expense other than expenses to stay in Delhi. That too Jamia Nagar where the college is located is also cheaper
- College space: Campus is vast. It gives us enough space to find our space. Enough reading hall facilities and Textbook halls are available
- Faculty: Faculties are almost good excluding some PhD scholars taking the core papers
Dislikes
- Administrative Communication: There comes a clear lack of effective communication between the administration, department, examination controller and so on. This creates confusions among srudents as well and this makes effect on their attitude as well
- Gender Inequality: In the case of hostel procedures, from the admission to administration, every this and that procedures are differently carried out for boys and girls.
- Unnecessary procedures : During the time of admission and Hostel Registrations, students has to go around making different kind of paper works for petty things which is well evident in ones appearance than to be in the paper
Course Curriculum Overview
Course structure is not revised any recently. Some faculty members also do have concern about it. So it is a challenge keeping up with the relevance. And debates and quizes are usually conducted as part of different programs in the department.
Fees and Financial Aid
The Course fee is 7500 in first year. But it decreases in the subsequent years as i had to approximately 6900 for second year. There is no categorical differences in fee structure. Government and several private scholarships are available like Central Sector scholarship by National Scholarship Portal NSP and private ones like HDFC Parivartan, Reliance scholarship etc. From the part of thr university, alumni scholarship is there for every bonafide students.
Campus Life
As campus is vast, we can find our space in the whole campus according to our liking. Annual Day ceremnies are held every year in JMI around the end of the October and several competitions are conducted by each departments during this time. There are different clubs under Dean of Student Welfare like Quiz, Drama clubs and also under specific departments like English literary club, Law Quiz club etc. The big student led event held in university is held by the Enactus JMI. Ecosoc from Economic department also come up with unique programmes. Zakir library is rich with availability of books, but coming to infrastructure, class rooms are not that developed. Its just a room space with some chairs, not every classrooms has sufficient digital facilites or even projectors. even though Jamia has nice sports facilities, apart from Sports quota students, sports events are not felt that explicitly conducted in JMI. But still the huge Bhopal ground witness several cricket events.
Hostel Facilities
Hostel registration itself is a huge paperwork especially for Girls in JMI. Hostel Infrastructure is good. Sometimes maintenance seems an issue and delay. In the case of food, there comes several complains each day from every hostels. They are located near to the campus. Rooms are mostly three seated and good. Affordability, considering it a central university its bit high but comparing to the stay outside in rented rooms or flat, its okay price. But each year they increases it without increment of any extra facilities. If not hostel, several Hostels are available around the campus. Rooms are also available in cheap rate and affordable if shared. Expenses can be adjusted according one's spending habit.
Admission
I chose this college for economic issues. It is relatively cheaper and provides wide opportunities based on its location. Admission to JMI is through both CUET and its own Entrance examinations. Admission to my course was through its own entrance. Eligibility is 12 th grade or equivalent. Exam is out of 100. Cut offs were 74 in General and 54 for Muslim women through which i got in
Faculty
Faculties are good and experienced. Relations between students and faculties are comparitively better in our department. Only issue we faced earlier was alloting PhD scholar for Core papers. I like almost every other faculties who have been teaching us. Exams are mainly semester wise. But tests are also conducted as part of Internal markings. Usually a lot of students do fail but i dont think its because of any failure from the department side, but their lack of preparation. Course structure is not revised any recently.
Night Life
Relatively JMI dont give tht modern chill vibe but calm vibes after classes as it gets afternoon finishing all the classes. Students find their groups in the vast spread Central canteen, Hygiene cafe and so on. A lot of them would spend the whole vening in the Ibn Sina Reading hall. Usually by the end of class time, Ibn Sina gets filled and its hard to fnd seats. Entire JMI space is safe for students. Zakir Library in JMI is like Asia's one of the largest libraries and it has bulk of resources to refer with. Gym is available in Boys' and Girls' hostel and also one in sports complex. But that one is not of easy access according to the timings and also unavailable to girls. And in hostel, even after paying Hostel maintenance fee, Gym fee is seperately collected even without a proper trainer
