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 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.
