Student Experience

Bilal Munir Malik (Fall 2021)




I am happy that I joined the first cohort of the program which combines the best educators from JGU and uses Coursera to deliver the program. It give me a good understanding of how things work in a complex world, the risk we should anticipate and mitigate, the historical perspectives of wars and the future of security. I enjoyed it and it elevated me from a normal news consumer to an analytical critique who goes a step deeper. MA IRSS is the new MBA.

Raghav Dua (Spring 2022)



Enrolling in the MAIRSS program was a transformative decision for me. The stellar faculty, efficient program team, and diverse multinational cohort created an unparalleled learning environment. The online format surpassed my expectations, offering flexibility and top-notch education. The comprehensive curriculum covered a wide range of topics, from theory to climate change and cybersecurity. The mentorship I received at the Centre for the Study of Global International Relations proved invaluable, forming the foundation of my future career plans. MAIRSS has truly been a catalyst for both my personal and professional growth.

Jindal Global University’s online Masters in International Relations provides rich and comprehensive courses ranging from IR theory to terrorism/counterterrorism to climate change to the rise of India in the current age. The lecturers are either leading academic experts, for example, Professor Sreeram Chaulia has authored several books, a number of which grace my bookshelf or have been senior diplomats with considerable longstanding careers in India’s Diplomatic Service. They thus bring a considerable amount of experience, expertise, insight and wisdom to the subjects in hand. We should also not forget the tutors on the courses who provide invaluable advice and support to the students -addressing our queries promptly and courteously– some of whom I consider personal friends. The webinars – particularly tutorials – are a great way to interact with the academic staff and your fellow peers – some of whom I am in constant regular contact  out of course hours. It has been fascinating to gain their perspectives and share opinions on the events of the world today, whether it be Afghanistan, Belize or even the Middle East & North Africa. This is a great way to – as one of my tutors said – to understand how and why the world works as it does.

The university, the professors, the TAs and tutors, and my colleagues have enriched my knowledge and widened my perspectives. Throughout my academic journey, I was impressed by the dedication, expertise, and willingness of all the professors especially Dr. Deepshikha Shashi, and tutors, specifically Teaching Assistants Ananthram Sundarababu and Abhijith Nair, to go the extra mile to support me and my colleagues. The master’s degree curriculum was well-structured, making studying easier for students. I confidently recommend O. P Jindal as the ultimate destination for anyone seeking an unmatched educational experience.
