Hello, I am not so aware about Tecnia Institute, I would say look for better options.Being an alumni of LPU I would suggest you to have a look over LPU and their BJMC Course and placements. As we all know that Mass Communication is a medium of dispersing information to a large number of people. The term is not limited to only journalism but spreads its branches to various other media fields including newsgathering and reporting, film direction and production, event management, public relations, advertising, corporate communication, and the list continues. So, pursing the degree from such an institute of repute is the need of an hour. Addressing your query, LPU offers more than 250 programmes out of which mass communication is high in demand. One of my niece took admission in LPU and told that the course is designed to expose students to all dimensions of Print, Electronic and New Age Media . The focus is on enhancing technical skills of reporting, news design software, video editing, photography etc. The focus is on 1. Better student-teacher interaction through mentoring sessions 2. Orientation of curricular content for enhancing employability 3. Opportunities to participate in extra-curricular activities for achieving all-round development. 4. Moocs 5. Curriculum benchmarked against renowned global institutions Career prospects are Journalists/Correspondents: Reporters, Editors/ Sub- Editors/ Assistant Editors Public, Relations Executives, Event Managers, Photojournalists, News Makers, Academicians and Film Makers Companies which have visited as of now are: Hindustan Times , Indian Express, The Hindu, Dainik Jagran, Dainik Bhaskar, The Tribune, Times Now, CNN IBN, ABP News, India TV, NDTV India ,Zee News ,India Today and Outlook I will advise you to book the seat at the earliest.

This college comes under 100 business schools of India and ranked 6th in top 10 colleges of GGSIPU. I am too a student of TIAS (BJMC-3rd year). I will suggest you try and opt rest of the top 5 colleges but still if your rank is not up to the mark than you can go for TIAS as well. All The Best!

Yes, the college is good, it gives a good experience and an exposure to this field. As we talk about the placements, the college has tied up with many core media companies now regarding all the possible fields of journalism. Many new companies have started to put in their placements in for this college. By your time of placement, I'm sure college will be great enough to promote campus placements.
