AMU Affiliated Colleges

AMU is better than VIT, SRM, Manipal and Thapar in many respects. AMU offers top notch facilities like these private colleges, but its fees are way less in comparison. 

Here are the goods and bads of joining AMU-

1. AMU has very good placements for CS, Electronics and Electrical branches. 
2. The cost of study and hostels is extremely pocket friendly. 
3. The campus is great and very safe for girls.
4. The faculty and infrastructure are both top notch. The CS and Electronics teachers have worked in the past for MNCs like Cisco and Microsoft.
5. The library and book banks allow easy access to books for those who suffer from financial difficulties.
6. The core branches (civil, mechanical and chemical) do not get core placement offers on campus. But one who knows his/her subjects well and has a good CPI, can easily acquire a good core job off campus. Core branches usually receive software related jobs offers during campus placements. 
7. Some freshers might feel a cultural shock at AMU, but they’ll eventually adapt to their new environment. 

Aligarh Muslim University is a more reputable brand in comparison to private colleges, and its education is much more affordable. You must work hard and get a good rank to get admission into AMU.

I was in a similar dilemma some years back. I ended up choosing AMU, but I am not happy with my decision. The placements at average level NITs like NIT Kurukshetra are much better than those at AMU. 

I got placed for 3.5 LPA at a well known company. But my friend who studied at NIT Kurukshetra got a much higher offer from some other brand. It is better if you choose a good branch at a decent NIT, and master your subject. The ‘NIT’ tag holds a lot of prestige. Companies that visit both Jamia and AMU, offer better packages for the same roles to Jamia students. 

Thus, I would strongly recommend you choose a decent NIT over AMU any day.

PGIMS Rohtak is one of the top medical colleges in India and has better OPD, better infrastructure, better fests, and more SS seats than AMU. You will be surprised to know that it has a separate super-specialty building. However, on the flip side, PGIMS students have to serve a bond of 2 years after MBBS and also have a lesser stipend than AMU.

It is easier to get general medicine in PG at AMU with AIR-7000 just after completing MBBS while in Haryana clinical PG seats are only available in PGIMS. So it will be quite difficult to get a general medicine seat in Haryana. Moreover, the academic environment at the UG level in JNMC is pretty good even if PGIMS is superior in OPD and infrastructure

The fees charged by JNMC AMU are quite less in comparison to PGIMS Rohtak. Also, the institute does not have any caste-based reservation so the quality of the crowd is not compromised at all. Lastly, AMU is a completely ragging-free campus.

So choose according to your priority.

The best way to determine the right college for M.B.B.S. is to analyze the pros and cons of these colleges individually

Considering the above points, choose wisely!

All three universities - Jamia Millia Islamia, Banaras Hindu University, and Aligarh Muslim University - have reputed law faculties and offer Bachelor of Arts (BA) and Bachelor of Legislative Law (LLB) programs. However, the best choice for you would depend on various factors such as location, fees, curriculum, campus infrastructure, and faculty.

• Ranking : Based on NIRF Ranking, JMU is the best among the 3 options. JMU Law was ranked 5 out of 30 in India 2023 by NIRF MBA. 
• Location : Jamia is situated in Delhi, the capital of India. The students are exposed to more opportunities in terms of internships and coaching. AMU and BHU don’t offer much exposure because of their poor location.
• Academics and Campus life: Jamia has a more dynamic and vibrant campus life with a better academic experience.

Overall, Jamia should be your first preference if you want to pursue courses like Mass Communication, Law, or Architecture 

Both Jamia Millia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University are well-known institutions that offer BA LLB programs. Both institutions have their own unique strengths and weaknesses, and the choice ultimately depends on your personal preferences and requirements. Here are some points to consider while making your decision:

• Campus and Location: Jamia Millia Islamia is located in Delhi while Aligarh Muslim University is located in Aligarh, Uttar Pradesh. Delhi is a larger city and offers more opportunities for internships and placements, while Aligarh is a smaller town with a more relaxed pace of life.
• Rankings: Both Jamia Millia Islamia and Aligarh Muslim University are ranked among the top law schools in India. According to the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF), Jamia is ranked 8th among law colleges in India, while Aligarh is ranked 9th.
• Faculty: Both institutions have experienced faculty members who are experts in their respective fields. It is important to research the faculty members and their areas of expertise before making a decision.
• Curriculum: The curriculum for BA LLB at both institutions is likely to be similar, but it is important to check for any differences in the courses offered, as well as the flexibility and opportunities for specialization.
• Infrastructure and Facilities: You may want to consider the infrastructure and facilities available at both institutions, including libraries, moot court halls, computer labs, hostels, and sports facilities.
• Alumni Network and Placements: It is important to research the alumni network and placements offered by both institutions. Look for information on the companies and law firms that regularly recruit from the institutions, as well as the salary packages offered.

BHU and AMU are sister concerns. Both institutes carry forward the same legacy so I don’t think they are comparable. 

People usually want to believe that these biased universities will divide Hindus and Muslims and worsen their relations. But that’s not the case.

Both universities are loyal to their cause- Education. 

As an AMU student, my sister loves her university. She has never visited BHU but she is sure BHU students love their university equally as well. 

So I don’t think the two universities stand a chance of comparison when they both are equally good.

In terms of academics, AMU is better. Being a central University, it offers better facilities and resources. It also has a locational advantage. Due to the proximity to Delhi NCR, it's easier to get placement opportunities, internships, and projects. AMU placements have been great for B.Tech. According to the recent placement drive, the median CTC offered was INR 8 LPA. Marque Impex, Genpact, EFS Facilities Service Pvt. Ltd. etc. Took part in the placement drive.
