You ACJ only once- get groomed here.

Faculty: ACJ has four streams TV, radio, print and new media. There is a separate course on business journalism for the people who wanted to pursue this. I was TV student and we were taught by BBC journalists and veteran Indian Media professionals. Hindu editor N Ram is a frequent speaker of our college. The course also have elective subjects which student need to choose. And they are taught some of the best people in that field. For eg Talking Cinema is taught by Bharadwaj Rangan.

This is the best place to go to if journalism is your subject.

Faculty: The faculty are the best part about ACJ. Everyone is highly qualified, helpful and knowledgeable. The student to faculty ratio is completely dependent on the stream and the subgroup that each student is a part of. The course curriculum is excellent. The exposure that each student receives is just what the media world wants.
