Jamia Millia Islamia University MA Public Administration: Fees 2025, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

The entrance exam for the MA Public Administration course at the university is held between May and July, with the first selection list released a month post-exam and subsequent lists every 10-15 days. The department has a strong faculty with five professors for about 80 students in two batches, and it emphasizes academic excellence and research. The course is structured on a semester basis, combining internal assessments (25 marks) and external exams (75 marks).

The first-year fee is Rs. 7,425, covering various charges, while the second-year fee is Rs. 6,900, and these fees are the same for all students. Scholarships are given based on class ranking, with awards of Rs. 2,500, Rs. 1,500, and Rs. 700 for the top three students, respectively. Placement opportunities are limited, with last year's participation by NGOs and companies like Smile Foundation, Infosys, and Torrent, resulting in placements for three out of four students.

Many students prefer pursuing further studies or government jobs over placements. Internship options are available with organizations like NHRC and Ministry of Health, focusing on administrative and public policy roles.
