Jamia Millia Islamia University is one of the most prestigious universities in the country. It is a central university and offers a huge range of courses. JMI Mass Communication is among the best mass communication programs in the country. The university is also famous for fine arts, law courses, and architecture.
The huge university campus includes a library, reading halls, canteens, sports complex, auditorium, residential coaching academy, and hostels.
Academics offered is top-notch. Most courses have compulsory subjects like English, Urdu, and study of different religions, etc. The university arranges many cultural events, debates, games, competitions, and other extra-curricular and sports events.
All three colleges fall on the list of top Architecture institutes in India. NIT Calicut and NIT Trichy are known for Architecture as their best programs. Having to know some people studying in these institutes, I can say that though NITs are the best for architecture, Jamia is also at par with them.
Categories | Architecture at NIT Trichy | Architecture at NIT Calicut | Architecture at Jamia Millia Islamia |
Course Fee | 7.00 lakh | 6.78 lakh | 55,750 |
Highest CTC | 20 LPA | 16 LPA | 12-13 LPA |
Average CTC | 10 LPA | 8 LPA | 6-7 LPA |
Therefore, it is suggested that you opt for NIT Trichy or Calicut for pursuing architecture. If not then you can go for Jamia instead, as it is also a good college.
Jamia Millia Islamia provides hostel facilities to B.Tech students. The hostel accommodation is decent. The hostel fees are only INR 6,400. The fees include electricity, water supply, and mess facilities. Hostel rooms are spacious and comfortable. The hostel has wi-fi facilities. The hostel has a gym, a TV room, and a huge hall for studying.
One of my friends studied at Jamia Millia Islamia (JMI). According to him, getting previous year’s solved papers for B.Sc. Math Honours is easy.
If you do not get them online, try searching for the question books of every year in bookstores or in shopping sites like Amazon or Flipkart.
I would suggest you to go for JMI Delhi. The reason for this is that JMI is very similar to the NITs. The environment and crowd are top-notch. Seniors at Jamia are also very helpful and cooperative.
The professors and other members of the faculty are well-experienced. They even help you plan your career after college. JMI alumni help you out in getting jobs and a decent salary amount.

Key Highlights:
Considering all the above factors, both the institutes have their own set of advantages and are worth considering.
I have friends in both the colleges, Jamia Millia and BIT Sindri. Here is a brief comparison of the two institutions.
Despite these facts, you will find good reviews about BIT Sindri on different social media. These reviews are out of love for the institute not based on facts. There is no way you will find the same facilities as JMI, at BIT Sindri.
If the issue is placement, you can make the best decision for yourself; however, if the issue is culture and discrimination, keep in mind that you are studying in India, and your rights are protected by the Indian Constitution. Furthermore, it is a matter of personal preference. emerge from it Placement is not everything; personality development is a more important trait to instill in yourself.
And after placement, you will be placed anywhere in the country or the world, not just in Jamia Milia Islamia. Try to adapt to any situation, make good friends, and have fun with them. You'll be there studying. So focus solely on studying because it will pay you back. You must work hard to get a job.
Jaipuria (Lucknow) Or Jamia Millia Islamia (Delhi) neither of these institutions is considered a top-tier choice for MBA studies. During the placement drive of Jamia Millia Islamia 2023, in which 25 companies participated in the placement drive. The highest CTC stood at INR 25 LPA which was offered by Amazon.
