The college offers a robust Chinese language program with classes of 30 to 40 students and a student-to-faculty ratio of 25:1. Each subject is taught by around five professors, many with PhDs or MPhils, including an award-winning faculty member. The program is rigorous, with three sessional exams and one end-semester exam, and a 40% failure rate in the first-year end-semester exam, indicating the language's difficulty. Notable faculty include Usha Chandran, Hemant Adlakha, and B.R. Deepak. Companies begin campus recruitment in the third year, with Chinese firms like Oppo and Vivo seeking translators and interpreters. These roles offer competitive salaries. While many students secure jobs, others pursue further studies. Internships are mainly accessed via the university's alumni network and collaborations with institutions like IIT Delhi. Jawaharlal Nehru University offers various scholarships, such as Non-NET, Maulana Azad, and Rajiv Gandhi National Fellowships, along with Merit-cum-Means scholarships for economically disadvantaged students. The tuition fee is minimal, starting at 268 INR for the first semester and 108 INR thereafter, with hostel and mess costs averaging around 6,000 INR and 3,000-4,000 INR, respectively. The placement record is strong, with graduates earning an average CTC of 12 LPA. The program also provides various scholarships, some fully funded, based on academic performance.
