    I am completely satisfied with our course, faculty members as well as overall college amenities.
    Placements: Placements for B.A in journalism are overall satisfactory. As this college is associated with Zee Media Corporation Ltd. so the recruitments take place at a good level. Similarly, good companies come here to hire students as interns. I got an internship in Zee News for around one and a half months in the reporting field.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of the campus is good. The food served and the rooms of the mess and hostel are respectively good. Our college is good in other co-curricular activities as well. Football and badminton tournaments take place often. Wi-Fi is provided, and laboratories and the library are properly maintained.
    Faculty: Faculty members in our college are very helpful and passionate. We do have our radio station. Teaching quality is also good. The course curriculum is relevant and if you are passionate and determined this course will make ready to work in the industry. If you are looking for our future in some good and reputed media house, then do visit HZU.

    The best place to explore yourself.
    Placements: This is my last semester, and many companies came for recruitment, naming a few, APTARA, GoPaisa, and Vivo Mobiles. The trouble is that almost all the companies come to hire commerce graduates, and the highest salary offered is 2.4 lacs per annum, for mass communication none of the companies came, which is a bad impact on the college name.
    Infrastructure: The best mass communication labs are here, and we have a Mac lab and another Windows lab, we also have the best green room, and we can get cameras and equipment by the college. The canteen is also good, and the mess is not satisfactory, we have 4-5 outdoor sports, badminton, football, basketball, volleyball, and tennis ground on the campus. The only thing which I can truly criticise is the administration of our college, however, we have the best faculty members, who are well-educated, but because of the administration we fail to enact proper strategies like we had two professional visits and the administration is not cooperative. The hostels are awesome, and I spent two years in the hostel, and I am happy with it. The library is short of books, and you can get course book over there, but not any other kind of books are available there.
    Faculty: The best part of our university is teachers, and especially of mass communication, they are well-qualified and helpful. The teaching method they use is easy to understand. The student-faculty ratio is of 7:1. There is less industry exposure because of administrative issues, and the curriculum covers from history to the modern day use of mass media tools, so it's helpful.
    Other: We have a diverse crowd in the college, and it's a good cultural experience. Almost every month, we have an inter-college competition. The scholarships are provided to meritorious students, and the annual fest is held in March.

    Tremendous placement and teaching.
    Placements: HZU provides a wide range of companies in training and placement, and its placement is really good. They even have big brands which include TOI, TDI, Oppo, Vivo, etc. Also, they provide a variety of placements in other fields which help students to make their base strong. The university is fully booked from the top companies in the country.
    Infrastructure: The university has a very big infrastructure which includes administration block, lecture theatre, 2 giant blocks, canteen, boys hostel, girls hostel, staff quarters, and the last but not the least swimming pool. The university has beautiful interior and also has its own radio station which is 107.8 FM. It has a big croma room or green room which is used for VFX. We also have related labs for our better knowledge. The whole campus is fully equipped with high-speed Wi-Fi. The food quality justifies its price and is really good.
    Faculty: All the faculty members are excellent in their own fields and are enriched with full of knowledge. They have good experience of teaching as well as of work. They are very practical and are very precise to the point. Teachers are much indulged with students, and they share a good bond. The curriculum was fully useful.
    Other: HZU organise many events on the campus itself such as annual fest, women's day, youth parliament, etc.

    The centre for quality education.
    Placements: The placements are neither good nor bad. All the seniors passed out from here are doing okay. The companies like Oppo, Vivo, and many other online websites are the major job providers. Also, the college doesn't force you to go to any random college. They would fix the interview as per your interest.
    Infrastructure: The infrastructure of Himgiri Zee University is the major strength of this place. Every department has its independent working area. Agriculture students have their field which is a large one. Media students have chroma room, radio station, newspaper, house journal, and so on.
    Faculty: The teachers working here are highly qualified and have great working experience in their respective fields. Many of them have worked in the field itself. Talking about the helpful attitude, then are training us for a bright future.
