JNU: Students' Opinion

AI-Generated Summary based on 2 Reviews

The review discusses the lack of internship opportunities for sociology students at Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) and notes that higher qualifications do not necessarily lead to increased income in this field. While specific information about other courses is not provided, JNU is recognized for its affordable fee structure, with a total course fee of INR 720 for four semesters.

In addition to this, students are required to pay registration fees each semester. JNU supports students financially through the Merit Cum Means (MCM) scholarship, available to those whose parents earn less than INR 2,50,000 annually. This scholarship provides INR 800 per month to day scholars and INR 2,000 per month to hostellers.

Eligible students can receive this scholarship each semester, although JNU does not offer direct internship or job placement services.

Mahak ChatterjeeStudied at Jawaharlal Nehru University

I have a friend who did his master’s from JNU and he was able to give some insight regarding the entrance test for MA Sociology.

In the entrance examination, there will be questions from out of the syllabus. You may be asked to give a sociological interpretation of the current situation, event, etc. So, stay updated with contemporary social issues. Here is a list of sections from where you can expect questions.

Sociological Thought: Marx, Durkheim. Weber, Parsons, Spencer, Comte, etc.
Research Methodology and techniques
Indian Society: Poverty, Family, Kinship, etc.
Society and polity
Society and economy
Technology
Caste and class system
Concepts like Globalization, Modernization, Sanskritization, and Localization.

Go through the list of topics assisted to you and make sure you prepare them thoroughly. As you can see the majority of the questions are from the syllabus itself.
