Review of Jamia Millia Islamia.
Placements: Students become eligible for placements from their third semester, and companies start visiting our campus by that time. Companies such as Viacom, Adfactor, Shareit, etc., visit the college. The highest salary package offered is from Viacom, which is 5.5 LPA. The average salary package offered is 4 LPA. Almost 40% of students get placed through our college, but the name of the college helps in getting off-campus job offers as well.
Infrastructure: The university's infrastructure is good. The university is well-maintained and has a friendly environment. Wi-Fi, computer laboratories with air-conditioning, photography labs with air-conditioning, print media room, large classrooms, and other amenities are available at our college. The new canteen's food is merely adequate. The hostels are not on the university's campus. However, the hostel's infrastructures, kitchen, gym, etc., are in excellent condition. Students have access to all facilities.
Faculty: The faculty-student ratio is 1:10. Every teacher has a Ph.D. The professors are courteous, helpful, and competent. Faculty members are always available to assist students. Every teacher has a unique way of instructing. Because our area is broad, and there are many job opportunities, we get industry exposure.
Other: I am currently pursuing M.A. in mass communication. The admission process is completed by the controller of examinations by conducting an entrance exam and interview. After graduation in any stream, you are eligible to take admission here. I chose this course because I am very interested in journalism and acting.

Review of A.J.K. Mass Communication Research Centre.
Placements: I am registered in a course where no placement cell sits for students. You have to do the whole process by yourself. Even though there is no plan for the internship. They give no time for that. The whole idea is to concentrate on the self. There is no system for placement in this course but others have the same.
Infrastructure: The course is well-designed by the teachers. They provide a well-structured course design. It is worth the penny. The hostel service is provided but not well designed. The hostel is allotted to those who belong to another state except Delhi. There is an interview process for a hostel.
Faculty: The faculty of JMI for this department is the best. They are all well-taught teachers like Sohini Gosh, Anugyan Nag, and many others. The teachers themself make the exam pattern. There are mid sem and last final exams. There are internal assignments that are also graded.
Other: The course costs 75000 rupees for one year. An additional amount of 3,000 rupees is required for a security deposit, which is also due for the next year. Campus life is enjoyable for those who live off-campus, but for hostel residents, there are many restrictions, such as not being allowed to go out after 10 o'clock.

Review of Jamia Millia Islamia [JMI].
Placements: The placements are a matter of question for the students that get enrolled into this flagship course of AJK Mass Communication Research Center, JMI. Seniors have contradicting answers to the same. While some say MCRC will equip you well with the skills necessary to get good earnings, some say it's important to focus on the process and build a portfolio, needing not to worry about job hunts as one gets placed here.
Infrastructure: There are no complaints about the infrastructure. The university is known for the course and has provided the industry with alumni that are worthy of being where they are today. With excellent studios, audio and visual recording equipment and external accessories, the university won't fail to surprise you. However, hostels at the moment are closed due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The food served is great. Most importantly, medical facilities and medicines are free of cost for all JMI students at Jamia's own M.A. Ansari Health Centre.
Faculty: Our professors are industry experts with more than 10 years of experience in their respective fields and have a diverse range of ways in which we are taught. The university has a planned functioning. If you get into MCRC, you'll have to show some grit and work your way up.

Placements and campus life are good.
Placements: Our batch got 100% placements. MA mass communication is a very relevant course, and it has priority in placements. We had mandatory internships during the course, which helped to find good jobs. This course is very helpful to work in any work field.
Infrastructure: MA mass communication is one of the best courses in Indian universities. In Jamia Millia, campus Wi-Fi is full-time available. Classrooms and a library are very advanced. We get food from the university canteen at an affordable rate. It is not tasty, but it is healthy.
Faculty: Teachers are helpful and highly qualified, and their actions are very relevant. The curriculum is much relevant, and it makes students industry-ready. The course is an area of interest for all students that helped them to score good marks in exams.
Other: I have chosen this course because MA mass communication is the best choice to get a good job easily. It is a professional course, and students get many scholarships. I got a university fully-funded scholarship. Our department has many events, including a welcome party, which was amazing.
