Admission to the University of Jammu involves taking the Jammu University Entrance Test (JUET), with selection based on a combination of JUET scores and graduation marks. Exams occur in mid-July, after which a merit list determines placement. Candidates must submit documents and pay via bank draft. Counseling sessions help students select campuses based on rank. The university employs experienced senior faculty alongside less-experienced contractual teachers, with concerns over the recruitment process and faculty accessibility.
While arts faculty are engaged, the science faculty is less so. Infrastructure is lacking, and semester-wise exams are held. Fees vary, with first, third, and fifth semesters costing around Rs. 14,000, while second, fourth, and sixth are about Rs. 6,000 each, totaling Rs. 80,000 to Rs. 100,000. Payments are made via Demand Draft, with concerns over the sports fee. Placement opportunities are limited, with no dedicated placement cell, and only 2 students secured placements last year.
Off-campus drives with companies like Wipro and Infosys are organized. SEBIZ INFOTECH and Tech Innovation Ltd. offer internships with stipends and focus on practical skills. Scholarships are available for SC, ST, and OBC students, covering full admission fees, but no provisions exist for EWS without certification. The annual fee is approximately Rs. 1,00,000, excluding other expenses like Rs. 5,000 monthly bus charges. A Rs. 2,500 monthly stipend is available during internships, but scholarships are minimal relative to costs, limited to 30-40 students.
Industrial visits are organized for practical exposure.
