My review of this college.
Placements: The placements were good. Students were eligible for placements after their second semester. The highest package offered to a student was 36 LPA, and the average was 7 LPA. Almost 50%–70% of students got placed. Companies like ALT Balaji, BBC, Wavemaker, Social Kinnet, Lowe Lintas, Eggfirst, FCB-ULKA, FruitBowl, TBWA, Hindustan Times, Epic, Ogilvy & Mather, Contiloe Entertainment, Vessel Vision, and Optimystix. I planned to do CPA after my degree as I looked forward to getting a good-paying and reputed job.
Infrastructure: Hostel facilities were awesome and most of the time remained clean. The food was fine. Food also depended on the contractor. There were some rules and regulations to be followed, which were to ensure girls' security. The area in which the college was located was safe.
Faculty: Our faculty was exceptional, comprising learned, enthusiastic, and dedicated individuals who excelled in teaching and mentoring. Approachable, available, and cooperative. They provided expert guidance and support to ensure student success. The curriculum of the course was really effective in the sense that it covered many diverse areas that fell under the umbrella of journalism. Although our curriculum included major assignments like producing TV documentaries and radio documentaries, we were not given good guidance to complete the process. Mostly, we had to figure out everything from script writing to video editing on our own. I like the exam structure and the way they took assignments on time. The assignments were very creative and gave a practical experience of the subject. I learned a lot from the college curriculum. Every subject was very well planned and taught to students.

Delighted to get studied in this college.
Placements: The percentage of placement would be usually between 62% to 73%, with major recruiters like NDTV, Sony, The Indian Express, and The Quint. Also, they are providing various skills training that were preferred by the various companies in upcoming years.
Infrastructure: College built with digital classrooms, audio and video-equipped studios, with all the amenities. Multiple hostel facilities arranged for the students based on their range of payment. Our college was constructed in central location of the city which would easier to reach college regularly.
Faculty: Years of experienced faculty members with stronger knowledge of the media and communication industries. The examinations were moderately complex even to clear. The rate of end results would range between 70% to 84% all the year. The course curriculum was more relevant to the subjects.

Review of Indian Institute of Mass Communication, New Delhi.
Placements: There are a lot of options for doing our desired jobs in various companies like Blue Lotus Communications, Nielsen India, Interconnect News and ITV Network in multiple positions. The packages are so appreciative, which would start from 3.4 LPA.
Faculty: Teachers are so optimistic and highly graded with good experience. Their teaching quality really means their experience of teaching. They are too strict and sometimes behave impolitely. I am okay with the teaching quality of them, but not with their other activities.
Other: The college sets some motto and principles in maintaining the college with good fame. So they will not allow the students to participate in any extracurricular activities often. If they allows us to do something it's only under the proper guidance of teachers.

IIMC - Indian Institute of Mass Communication provides good placements and campus life.
Placements: Placement drives are held in February. Companies like TOI, ABP News, Economic Times, All India Radio, PTI, and Dooradarshan come to the campus and hire students for various positions. The highest package offered is 20 LPA, by Sony Entertainment, Mumbai, whereas the average package offered is 3 LPA. As per the placement cell, approximately 75% of students got placed. I joined AIR as a content executive for its Social Media Cell.
Infrastructure: There are updated and well-versed volumes of books, journals, and magazines in the library, along with high-speed internet. Classrooms are all digital, with projector screens, speakers, and microphones. There are a lot of co-curricular activities on campus, such as table tennis, badminton courts, tennis courts, and more. I was a part of the film club on campus, and we used to watch one film every Saturday in the auditorium, followed by a discussion on the film itself. Each hostel room has a single bed, a wardrobe, a study table, and a chair. Rooms are well lit and ventilated. Food in the mess is of decent quality. Menu is dynamic and changed every day. Hostel registration and room allotment are on a first-come, first-serve basis. Hostel fee was Rs.5000 per month, and mess charges were around Rs.3500 per month. In case you couldn't get a room in the hostel, you can stay in a rented room or PG in Ber Sarai, Kishan Garh, and Vasant Kunj, close to the institute.
Faculty: The faculty for our department are diverse. There are professors who've been senior journalists or are still practicing journalists, academicians in media and media studies, former speakers, lawyers, and more. Teaching methods are very practical. We are given assignments for reporting, exploring the neighborhoods, finding out real stories, using camera equipment, and much more. There are two semesters per year, and term exams are conducted twice, in November and May. All the examinations are difficult, but we had vivas and research projects, which made it pretty interesting. We also had a thesis submission at the end of the second semester, which was the most informative and interesting part of the course.

With the right people, it is a good place to be.
Placements: Placements can be overwhelming. Not an easy process. As my placements took place during peak times of Covid, not many good companies were hiring. Would be no harm to look out for yourself and keep your options open. Build your CV, they do not allow internships during the course, it would great if you do them before joining.
Infrastructure: Delhi campus is beautiful. Next to JNU, the greenery and rest of the infrastructure makes it a comfortable place to be and study. The library is fine. The collection in the library is good, can find exclusive pieces that you won't find easy and affordable in the market. Well built, detailed structure of the building.
Faculty: Again, this can be really overwhelming. Curriculum is good but really huge to be covered in 9 months. Professors are very nice, faculty (some of them) are helpful. If you focus and study well, exams are good. Some professors are really there for you, incase you need any help.

IIMC especially IIMC, Delhi gives good exposure and a place where you can grow & learn.
Placements: Till 2019, majority of students got placement from the campus. As far as 2020 is concerned due to the corona pandemic the placements are going on while offline placements will be there once the situation improves. It will be interesting to know as to how the placements have gone as till now we have got only negative responses.
Infrastructure: From classrooms to labs to everything. Infrastructure is quite good. Good quality food in the canteen at the most reasonable price along with beautiful gardens and cleanliness. Moreover, you can enjoy nature's beauty and the staff there will be quite cooperative.
Faculty: Teachers are good. Most of the teachers who come are visiting faculty, so sometimes you will be like wow and sometimes you will fall asleep in the classes. You need to work more yourself. The curriculum is relevant but again you have to work on your own. You have to take initiatives on your own and just utilise whatever resources you have to enhance your skills.
Other: English Journalism is one of the flagship course of IIMC and here you can have wide-ranging contacts in the media as well as various other fields. Exposure is there but eventually, it will be your capability that will take you forward.

A great Institute with dedicated teacher and faculty members.
Placements: Recruitment for 2018 batch wasn't as expected. The media organisation/companies we wished for did not turn up for recruitment. Nevertheless, most of the students were placed in a good media house. Probably 60% got placed during the process and the minimum package could be estimated at Rs 15,000 per month.
Infrastructure: Library, Wi-Fi, classrooms, common hall and more were provided. The facilities, all together, was great. The mess, however, could be made better. Complaints have been filed too. Hoping to see some changes for the new students. Games like cricket, badminton at the campus was highly enjoyed.
Faculty: Yes, teachers and the colleagues were great. The dedication and efforts are commendable. We would however be happy if more syllabus could be added to our study: ranging from the current affairs. Theory and practical should go hand in hand. Overall, a great institute.
Other: Because I wanted to be a part of the society and was hoping that this course will help me hone my skills and further develop me into the person I wished to see.
