Diploma in Journalism - Batch of 2025
4.4
Well-structured journalism course with strong practical training and decent campus facilities.
Placements: Around 70% of students got placed from our journalism course. The highest package offered is 5.5 LPA, the lowest is 1.8 LPA, and the average package stood at 3 LPA. Top recruiters include NDTV, Dainik Bhaskar, The Indian Express, and Zee Media. Nearly 60% of students secured internships in companies like India Today, The Quint, and News18. The top roles offered are reporter, content writers, copy editor, social media executive, and digital journalism.
Infrastructure: The journalism department offers well-equipped classrooms, high-speed Wi-Fi, a media lab, and a resourceful library. Hostels are clean with basic amenities. The mess serves hygienic food, and the canteen offers affordable snacks. Medical facilities are available on campus, and students have access to sports grounds and indoor games for recreation.
Faculty: The teachers are helpful, well-qualified, and knowledgeable, offering practical insights alongside theory. The curriculum is industry-relevant, covering core journalism skills and digital media trends, making students job-ready. Semester exams are moderately challenging but fair. The pass percentage is around 85%-90%, reflecting strong academic support and student performance.
Other: I chose diploma in journalism because of my passion for storytelling, media and desire to build career in the communication industry. The best part of the course is its practical exposure, with real time assignments, media labs and industry focused curriculum. I wish there were more guest lectures and field visits to gain deeper insights into newsroom functioning. The campus has a friendly crowd, decent infrastructure and regular events and fests that keep the environment vibrant. Public transport connectivity is good, and scholarships are available for deserving students. Extracurricular activities add to overall student development and creativity.

    Overall, the college and my college experience are good.
    Placements: No student gets placement offers from this course. Even the production branch students don't get any placement offers. But other branch students get placement offers, especially CSE and electronics. Other branches like civil, mechanical and electrical are offered.
    Infrastructure: All the basic facilities are available, like a library, canteen, computer lab and separate labs for AutoCAD and a multi-purpose hall for different kinds of activities. Basic facilities are provided in the hostel. The food in the mess is average. But the canteen has snacks and of good quality. Medical facilities are not available in this college. Sports and games like basketball, cricket, badminton, etc., and other activities like NCC and NSS are available.
    Faculty: The teachers are highly qualified and knowledgeable. The teaching quality is good. It makes the students industry-ready, but students did not get placement offers from this course. Semester exams are not very difficult. Most of the exam questions come from regular textbooks or from other books recommended by the teachers. The pass percentage is 33% per exam.
    Other: I chose this course because I have an interest in construction and interior designing. Students in this college work on cartridge sheets, but in other private colleges, students work on computers or laptops. So this should be implemented in this college. Events held here are Apratim, Fresher's party and other multi-purpose hall functions and festival celebrations. The crowd is good but depends upon person to person. Campus surroundings are good compared to other government colleges. Extracurricular activities are NCC, NSS and activities in the multi-purpose hall like acting, modeling, singing, different dance forms, solo performance, and other talents if anyone wants to present on stage.
