An Insider Perspective on Jain
Likes
- The university offering all students faculty with unlimited and free access to platforms like Linkedin and Coursera where we are fee to access quality content and limitless opportunities.
- the fact the university does not burden students with unnecessary pressure in the name of academics. As long as you have your required attendance, and submit you IA's on time you are fine.
- the fact that they organise various conferences where the content is perfectly tailored to the students attending it,
- the faculty. most of them are kind and help the students in any ways they can. they are very understanding as well
- the mentoring hours are one thing that i like the most. in these hours, the mentor has one on one interaction with the student to analyse their potential and they work together to maximize the student's employability
Dislikes
- it do not have any trips at all. i have been here for the past year and a half, i have not heard about a field trip let alone a college trip.
- lack of coordination and communication. Nobody knows what is going on until the very last second. Last i heard they are working on it.
Remarks :
The main reason why i chose this college is the lack of academic burden and pressure that they put on their students. For my admission i had to pass the written exams called JET conducted by the university followed by a personal interview. The exam was fair with questions ranging from easy to difficult with considerable difficulty level. The personal interview is also easy given that you have enough knowledge about you subject. i believe the cut off percentage for the university is 40%. To prepare for the exam, you can go through your basic 12th grade learning materials and a little bit of grammar. The think both the positive and negative side of the campus is that its situated in the city. while its good to have all the essential stores, malls, theatres and cute cafe's and places to hang out if your looking for a typical campus life with a lot of space and plants and nature, you are going to be disappointed.
Course Curriculum Overview :
i chose this course because of the specific combination of the subjects. Most of the faculty hold a PhD in their respective fields while the others are either people with good experience or pursuing their PhD while teaching. All of the faculty know what they are doing and conduct their classes well. Another quality i have noticed is that they actually want us to learn well and is always there if we need any assistance. As for the exams, there are 2 written exams, the pre finals and end semester exams. The total marks is out of 100 where 50 is for the final exams and the another 50 is for the internal assessments (IA). There are mainly 3 IA where one will be an individual project and the other two will be group projects. Each IA carries 10 marks. Attendance and class participation contributes to 10 mark(5 each). The rest 10 marks is for the pre finals. (pre finals are marked out of 50, the scores is tallied to 10). If you have a basic understanding of classes it is easy to pass.
Placement Experience :
The average package of placements at Jain 4,00,000 per annum. i am not aware of the number of offers made. My future plans after graduation is mainly to pursue further academic pursuits. As far as i know the placement chances for humanities students is less compared to other departments.
Loan/ Scholarship Provisions :
yearly one has to 1,50,000 yearly for BA in psychology journalism and English. In first year along with the fees you have to pay a registration fees of 20,000 more. As for the fees payment students are provided with three types of payment. 1. the fees can be paid in full amount at the start of the year. 2, it can be paid in two installments where half should be paid first and the other half has to be paid later. 3, Students can avail the Liquiloan services where you have to pay the fess in 8 installments with 0% interest. To avail these services the representatives both the university and the company will help you. Other than this fees, the only additional fees is the examination fees at each semester end. It starts from 1000 and may increase or decrease according to the number of papers you have to write. The fees for international students is above 2,00,000 . As far as my knowledge goes there are no scholarships other than sports.
Campus Life :
There is mainly 1 fest called Anveshna for freshers. Various other programs are conducted throughout the year by different clubs where small stalls are put up and is usually followed by a flash mob. There are various clubs run by different departs for their subjects like psychology, sociology, economics, literature, journalism etc. There is also a NSS unit at the campus as well. the university has a sports forum where athletes are given the opportunity to participate at different events. The campus has an extensive library stocked with many referral books for various subjects, it has all the important newspapers and educational magazines in stock as well. The library is a perfect place to focus on your work without disturbances. If you want to surf through internet or work you can use the computers present as well. Each classroom is well equipped with smart board and WiFi connection. some are even air conditioned. They are well maintained and kept clean.
Hostel Facilities :
I have not opted for the hostel however from friends i know that the students are given breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks at evening. The lunch is delivered to the campus at time where they can have it after showing their meal card. The menu for each day is forwarded to them earlier so they can sign up to eat the food. The quality of the food is below average from south Indian point of view, not sure about the north though. The rooms are well maintained and tidy. Students can use bus service for commute between campus and hostel. The hostel is expensive with fees around 1,50,000 an year. I rented a pg near campus at Jaynagar 9th block just 3 crosses away from campus. if you can find a pg i think its much better.

BSc Physics at Jain University
Course Curriculum Overview :
Faculties are well qualified and some of them are doing active research. However the college does not have a very active research environment but they do not hinder a student from taking up projects outside. They provide all support like recommendations, attendance permissions etc.
MSc Physics at Christ
Course Curriculum Overview :
All the faculties are well qualified and quite renowned in their research fields. However some of them have this quality of holding personal grudge and targeting. Some assume you know a lot and don't teach properly and expect more from the student. There is a lot of pressure even with internals, assignments and other things.
A review by a normal college student
Placement Experience :
For placement, The student shouldnt have any backlogs. There are companies that are stated as "Great Places to Work" as well as some startups that come for college recruitment. The highest package last year (2023) was 6000000, and the average package of the university is approximately 850000. A good percentage of people who opt for placements do get placed decntly. My plans after my BBA are writing GMAT and going for my MBA abroad in a good college.
