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. The highest salary offered is Rs. 35,000 per month. Top recruiting companies for our course are Zee Media, Times of India, etc. Students get various roles in this course, like producers, radio jockeys, reporters, news anchors, and even in the public relations and branding department.

Infrastructure: I am a day scholar, so I don't know much about hostels. Students of my class who are hostelers say that it is good. Classrooms, labs, or the library of our department are amazing. We have very good studios. In the library and classrooms, we learn a lot of new things.

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.
