There is a stark difference between both universities in terms of culture as well as fees. JNU or Jawaharlal Nehru University is mostly about expression, literature, culture, research, and building intellectual facilities whereas DU is all about glamor, fashion, fests, high cutoffs, and placements.

In financial terms, JNU is much more affordable than DU. Be it course fees or hostel fees, JNU cuts down on expenses a lot.

JNU is learning for life, whereas DU focuses on learning the bare essentials and getting placed in a reputed firm.

One more significant difference to consider is that JNU is more about post-graduation whereas DU focuses more on graduation. The difference in intellectual level stems from the same reason.

If you are still confused between the two, spend equal time on both campuses and you will get the answer soon.

 If you have been contemplating leaving your Master’s in Public Policy program at NLSIU Bangalore to pursue an MA in Development and Labour Studies at JNU, it is not worth it. Here's why:

  • Pursuing a Master’s in Public Policy from a reputed institute like NLSIU Bangalore opens doors to promising and lucrative career opportunities. In comparison, job prospects in Development and Labour Studies are relatively meager.
  • A Master’s in Public Policy program helps you develop a wholesome understanding and a holistic idea of Policy Making. It also allows you to understand the broader spectrum of key issues related to policy-making. In contrast, the MA program in Development and Labour Studies at JNU may not provide a 360º approach towards understanding public issues or cultivate a knack for Policy Making, as this course is primarily focused on issues related to Labour and Trade Unions.
  • There are several reputed Think Tanks in India that offer lucrative and respectful career opportunities to Public Policy Graduates. Some of them are - the Centre for Policy Research, NITI Aayog, Observer Research Foundation, Research Foundation for Governance in India, Institute of Peace and Conflict Studies, India Policy Foundation, Indian Institute for Advanced Studies, and so on.

In conclusion, if you are already selected for pursuing a Master’s in Public Policy at NLSIU Bangalore, it is not worth leaving it to pursue an MA in Development and Labour Studies at JNU. Pursuing Public Policy at a reputed institute like NLSIU Bangalore will open doors to lucrative career opportunities and help you develop a wholesome understanding and a holistic idea of Policy Making.

JNU is a better option, especially for postgraduate degrees. JNU has a different aura altogether. The environment on campus is extremely accepting. You will meet people on campus who are intellectuals, readers, writers, and speakers. Simply being on JNU campus can be rewarding. It has a different culture entirely which motivates the holistic development of personality. JNU has an excellent faculty base. 

In financial terms as well JNU is a better option. The course fees and hostel fees are lower compared to DU. As per JNU University course fees, an MSc degree costs around INR 692.

JNU offers decent B.Tech courses. The faculties are among the sharpest minds in the country. Most of the professors are alumni of IIT, NIT, and IISc. The reputation of JNU lives no space for doubt about the quality of academics. 

The curriculum and syllabus followed are diversified and similar to top IITs and NITs. The syllabus also includes Humanities courses. 

In the school, there is a lack of cultural events, but the institute is working on it. There are a few problems regarding the hostel accommodation, but nothing too big. The engineering school is located in a secluded part of the campus.

Whether your life at JNU is hectic or not, depends mainly on your course. It’s you who has to find the balance between career, friends, fun and yourself.

JNU is exceptionally safe for girls and girls can enjoy their college life by roaming around at night. Some other fun activities at JNU are:

  • DJ parties for freshers almost every weekend

  • During the winter semester you get hostel nights every weekend. It's a 2 day event celebrated by each hostel. First day is a cultural program, students irrespective of their hostel can take part in singing, dancing, music, band and drama to be performed on the same stage and get facilitated. On the second day the hostel throws a dinner party followed by a DJ.

  • JNU facilities extracurricular toba great extent. Clubs like dance, drama, painting, music, mountaineering, photography and other sports make the experience a thrill.

  • The campus is surrounded by many eateries, especially dhabas that provide the best food.

The best part of the university has to be its no minimum attendance rule. You are assessed on the basis of your performance only. So life at JNU can be both hectic and fun depending on how you balance it.

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.

JNU placements for MCA are good. Some of the major recruiters for MCA are Google, Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, etc. Students usually receive an average CTC of around INR 4-5 LPA. While the highest CTC goes up to INR 9-11 LPA. 

But JNU is a research-oriented university. If you want excellent placement in the technical field, it will be better to join the top IIT or NIT. You will get better technological exposure at these institutes.

One of my friends was selected for BA French at JNU a few years back and here are his tips on how to do well in the entrance exam. 

G.K: You should incorporate every little detail from Arts, Literature, Drama, Culture, Dress, Cuisines, Geography, Nobel Laureates, and more to become familiar with the language you have pursued.

Reasoning Skills: You should be proficient in solving several coding-decoding problems, especially alphabetical orders, blood relations, syllogisms, direction, and ranking tests.

English: It is equally important to be as strong in English as you are in other subjects. Various course areas, like the Basic grammatical Rules, Vocabularies, Reading Comprehension, and Passages should be on the tip of your tongue. For best results, you should follow the editorial and articles published in “The Hindu.” 

English includes a major marking scheme for all the other sections. Now, since an essay alone contains a scheme of about 20-30 marks, it is best that you practice writing ingeniously without using heavy vocabulary. JNU appreciates the artistry of innovation and it is best to keep their tastes intact. Simplicity is encouraged along the lines of critical thinking, at least more than sophisticated word formations. 

It is best to keep your thoughts perfectly aligned with the subject area, and not outside of it.
