Yes, you can typically join the Azaz Rizvi College of Journalism and Mass Communication for a PG Diploma programme without needing the JEECUP (Joint Entrance Examination Council Uttar Pradesh) score.

In the world of communication, advertising and public relations (PR) play distinct but complimentary functions. Advertising is a paid advertising strategy used to promote products, services, or brands. On the other hand, Public relations works in the field of earned media, focusing on the development and maintenance of a positive reputation for a company, individual, or cause.
Points of Difference | Advertising | Public Relations (PR) |
|---|---|---|
Purpose | To promote a product, service, or brand | To build and maintain a positive reputation, manage relationships, and create a favorable image for an organization, individual, or cause. |
Control | Advertisers have complete control over the message and its placement. | PR professionals have less control over media coverage and rely on earned media (coverage gained through promotional efforts rather than paid advertising). |
Paid/Unpaid | Paid communication | Generally unpaid (focuses on earned media, although there are paid PR services). |
Credibility | Often perceived as less credible due to the paid nature of the message. | Typically seen as more credible because it relies on third-party validation, such as media coverage. |
Format | Specific formats like print, radio, TV, online ads | Varied formats, including press releases, media events, social media, and community relations. |
Audience | Narrowly focused on target consumers or audiences. | Targets a broader audience, including media, employees, investors, and the public. |
