At Lovely Professional University, B.A. Journalism and Mass Communication students usually get opportunities to choose or explore minors/electives related to areas such as Digital Media, Advertising, Public Relations, Film Studies, Photography, Radio Production, TV Production, Social Media Management, Content Writing, and Corporate Communication. These minors help students build specialization along with the core journalism curriculum, which improves career opportunities in media houses, digital platforms, advertising agencies, and communication industries. As for class timings, the schedule generally depends on the semester and subject combination, but most classes are conducted during regular daytime hours, usually from morning till afternoon. The timetable includes a mix of theory lectures, practical studio sessions, editing labs, workshops, projects, and field activities. Lovely Professional University also encourages students to participate in media events, productions, anchoring, and extracurricular activities, so the overall learning atmosphere is very active and practical-oriented.

Samreen Begum · Answer

At Lovely Professional University, the B.A. Journalism and Mass Communication program usually comes with minors via Open Minor OR Discipline Minor choices, where students may pick extra subjects from areas like Digital Marketing, Public Relations, Psychology, English, Film Studies, Management, Data Analytics, Entrepreneurship, or even technology related fields, depending on what's available and which semester is running. The basic thought is to help students shape a more interdisciplinary toolkit next to media studies, in a sort of flexible manner. As for class timings, there isn't one fixed schedule that fits everyone. The timetable typically shifts each semester, and also by section, so it can feel different even for students in the same batch. Most classes tend to happen anytime between roughly 9 AM and 5 PM , though the lecture slots can vary across the week. A couple of days might feel quieter, while other days can jump into back to back practicals, labs, or studio sessions.

Dear Puneet, The classes at LPU normally start at 8 am and end at 6 pm. It depends on the courses and availability. Moreover, sometimes only 3 or 4 classes are there. My sister did BA in JMC from LPU itself. The program is designed to expose students to all dimensions of Print, Electronic, and New Age Media. As we all know, Mass Communication is a medium of dispersing information to many 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, pursuing 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 nieces took admission to LPU and told me 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 extracurricular activities for achieving all-around 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, NewsMakers, Academicians and FilmMakers 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 Hope this helps.
