Amazing faculty and teachers, not satisfied with the lab computers.

Placements: The PG Diploma Course in Journalism and Digital Media has an amazing crowd from across India, coming from various streams. I am currently a student there, and we are a total of 9 people. As of now, none of us are doing any internships, but the college has tie-ups with channels like Times Now, Times of India, Star Sports, etc. Through a college internship, we can get job roles such as live reporter, copywriter, content writer, etc.
