Course Curriculum Overview

4.5

I am currently pursuing German Hons. And I chose it because I have always been interested in visiting Germany and its neighbouring countries. Since language learning gives you the opportunity to visit that country. We have 3 faculty members right now in the first semester for language teaching and 1 for history. That means For 40 students there are 3 teachers. All are highly qualified and well trained to teach language. Out of 4 , 2 are PhD scholars and 2 are professors. If we talk about exams then We have 2 sessional exams and one end semester exam in one semester.

Placement Experience

4.5

Jnu has placement cell for language and technical courses. The students are eligible for placement in third year. Various MNCs like Amazon Google visit for placements. Highest package for BTech go upto 40 lakh and for language it goes upto 20 lakh. However Most students opt for higher studies. Even I also want to study further and try for lectureship.

Fees and Financial Aid

JNU is one of the most affordable universities of India. We have only ?268 academic fees for one semester. For hostel, you have to spend 3k/yr excluding food. If we talk about scholarships , then every language provide scholarships and also opportunity to study abroad at minimum costs. However the university itself provides MCM scholarships of ?2k/month for those whose parental income is less than 2.5 lakh/yr.

Campus Life

4

All the departments have their separate fests and freshers party. For instance in German we have freshers party and annual German week event where special deligates also come to enjoy the event. We have a central library in the campus and separate library for each department. You need not worry about books here in JNU. The classrooms are very neat clean and have proper lighting. All classrooms have AC and fans and are fitted with digital boards and speakers. To be honest JNU is not very good in sports. However We have everything for sports like an outdoor stadium, badminton courts , tennis courts , basketball, volleyball etc. We have students activity centre where people from different clubs practice their specialities.

Hostel Facilities

4.5

When you take admissions , you are given a dormitory where each room has multiple beds. But after a few months you get your hostel which are loaded with double bed . Meal quality is honestly very good. You get 3 meals a day. For the registration of hostel you have to submit application at the time of admission. Then you will get a dormitory instantly and after a few months a hostel list is published there you will get your hostel.

Admission

For admission in JNU you have to pass cuet exam with a good percentage.Firstly you must have to opt English and general test combination. If you want to pursue a good language course then you have to score approx 85 % in this combination. German and French are the languages which have the highest cutoffs. So I one wants a good language course then he or she must score good.

As a future law student philosophy was one of the options which was good to opt. Secondly, comparatively less people opt it and it can be one of the better choices if you are preparing for upsc and taking it as an optional. Teaching can be made more interactive as the topics are really interesting

Remarks:

Positive : the faculties are good and I could say our college is the meeting place of various cultures ranging from Kerala to jammukashmir Negative: the infrastructure is poor. Labs and libraries are not so good. And there are stray dogs who often steps into classes and make us afraid. College is not fully air conditioned but is on processing.
