Yes, absolutely. BJMC is as same as Bachelors in journalism (Honors) offered by DU. It's just that the notation of the courses might be different with the range of topics slightly varying from each other, but the course will lead you to the same hallway of opportunities in the field of journalism, media and mass communication.
All the best.
