Christ University Bangalore Answered Questions

There are many things which make Christ different from other colleges. Christ is truly committed towards the development of the students and gives opportunity you need for this. But, it up to us to utilize these opportunities. There has been an upward trend in the number of students opting for HR in our batch, and I should say most of them are the ones with very high marks. Even the placements are pretty good this year.

Honestly speaking, the ET is pretty easy. You should have a fair idea of the current affairs and general and basic history of the country and its media (newspapers, radio, TV; just basic and general). That's it.
The PI is nothing but the interviewer's test at getting to know how much you want to join the college, what skills and temperament you possess to succeed decently in the course, what are you expecting out of the course and university and how keen and willing are you to learn more than anything else. An interview is nothing but a formal chit chat in an attempt to know both the parties better. Be confident, polite, and humble and ask one or two questions out of genuine curiosity- leaves a better impression. And more than anything, be honest in your answers and talks, don't try and be something that you aren't and say blow up something that you don't know.
All the best.

There are two semesters in one year here. The subjects offered for the current academic year (3rd year- final year) are as follows-
5th semester-
1. Development and community journalism
2. Science journalism
3. Magazine journalism
4. Advertising
5. Media research methods
6. Press law and ethics
6th sem-
1. Critical media issues
2. Film appreciation and review writing
3. Sports journalism
4. Lifestyle journalism
5. Public relations
6. Dissertation

Scope is good provided to learn, perform and do self-learning as well. There is much need to practice during the course. Let it be any university or college or institute, do understand the syllabus first and its delivery methodology by personally visiting the concerned organisation.
You can also consider joining specialised and practical programs at RK Films and Media Academy in Delhi. Website is www.rkfma.com

So, BA (Hons.) in journalism is a pioneer course in Christ and is currently running the second batch and is ready for the third one. For the entrance test, all you need is a fair idea of the current affairs and the general and basic history of the country and its media (newspaper, radio, TV; just basic). It isn't very tough. Once you clear it, you will have a personal interview with the senior faculty members from the university, which would be just a formal chit chat to get to know both the parties better.
The course as it is exclusive to journalism will teach you everything from the traditional forms of media that includes print to the new media that include the social media platforms. You will learn technical stuff like photography, videography, and editing.
The course plans are tweaked every year to make it better for the students but would soon stabilize after a few batches.
I hope I answered your question.
Cheers.
