Post Graduate Diploma in Broadcast Journalism - Batch of 2016

1Placements1Infrastructure1Faculty1Crowd & Campus Life1Value for Money

Review of India Today Media Institute.

Placements: This institute is a trap. Don't fall into it. The faculty members at ITMI will keep telling you stories throughout the course so that you keep paying your fees to them. The myth of practical learning is false. The reality is that the employees at India Today themselves do not recommend the companies for a full-time job role during or after their internships at the firms. They treat interns like slaves, providing zero or low salaries. Your previous job accomplishments, degrees, and marks secured at ITMI will not guarantee you a job. Eventually, they will make you beg for jobs during your internship period, so that when you get one, you do not think much about the salary or remuneration. They will either make you work for free or give you the lowest salary package possible in the media industry.

Infrastructure: Most students who studied at ITMI were desperate for jobs in the media industry. They did not focus on the food or infrastructure of the institute.

Faculty: The curriculum being taught at the institute was totally opposite of what was expected in the practical world. They will make you attend random workshops, take you out on trips in the name of industrial training outings, and give you projects and assignments that will have no role to play in helping you grab jobs.

Great place for those who want to be media professionals.

Placements: They give plenty of opportunities but ultimately it depends upon individuals capabilities to convert that opportunity. The average package is about 2.5 LPA based on your capability it can go up and down slightly. They have great links in reputed media houses.

Infrastructure: Facilities are quite good but due to Covid, we hadn't got many opportunities to have exposure to those. Classrooms, Labs, Library is available, they don't have any specific hostels but they do assist you in finding PGs nearby. And as obvious due to Covid sports activities aren't happening now but yes they have a great arrangement for that as well.

Faculty: Faculty members are very helpful and friendly. Teachers are knowledgeable and interested in teaching you a subject in detail. The course will give you an insight how media actually works. Semester exams are above average as per difficulty but if you are aware of the subject you can crack it.

Other: The only reason for choosing this course was learning and internship in a reputed media organisation. As it is an autonomous body they don't have any scholarship. Extracurricular activities have been raised due to Covid.
