It is the best department of Chitkara University.

Placements: As we are told by our dean, and the information we got from our seniors is 75% of students got placements, but others are going to continue their studies.

Faculty: Teachers of our department are very helpful, especially our dean, sir Mr Ashutosh Mishra. He is supportive. The course curriculum is relevant as we are taught about the latest technology. Exams are easy if we focus on our studies.

Good campus life and great curriculum .

Placements: Well, in my course, we are provided internships in our last semester, and the opportunities are lined up by the placement cell of the university. So you can say that all the students in my class are doing paid internships in different media organisations. For example, I'm working at a PR company right now.

Infrastructure: My department is nice, we have labs and studios in our basement. Radio labs, television studios, and other Chroma studios to record and shoot videos for our news channel. Yes, there is a library available for us in our department. I was a hosteller too, so the hostel was just fine, and we had mess facilities too, along with laundry service.

Faculty: The dean and teachers in my department were helpful, and they are the reason I'm working for a very good company today, and I got to learn a lot from them. Yes, the students are prepared for the industry, but I feel that because of COVID, we lost a number of opportunities because we were online.

We have received advanced learning from my faculty and several opportunities from the curriculum.
