Hi, Travelling the world is a kind of pure serenity and becoming travel journalist would be better if you are sure that you are indefatigable. Believe me, it has global scope for job opportunities. Few things you should keep on your mind prior to proceed for Journalism degree from any institute; # Do they have a experienced faculty (Faculty must have expertise in theory and practical both). # Do they have Adequate/appropriate equipment to make you expert in handling them. # Do they have Audio/Video studio to teach them practically. # Are they running any Media house. # Do they provide the platform to you for doing practices. # Do they have such atmosphere where you can have an experience to perform practically. # Do they have Industrial Tie Ups. # Do they provide Teachings from external experts. Now LPU is coming on my mind because they do provide all above mentioned Salient features. LPU is producing smart and Intelligent journalists. Not only journalists you can find LPU journalism students at various sectors of Media and Entertainment. For eg: I know one LPU Student who got placed as a Celebrity Manager in T-series. LPU provides teaching by Doctorate faculty along with the handful practical study by experienced professionals. LPU has Adequate/appropriate equipment which they use on regular basis for making their children well trained even practically. LPU have separate Professional Audio and Large size Video Studio. Where as Multimedia and Animation adds on the spark to the School of Journalism and Mass Communication.

One of the LPU student won DADA SAHEB PHALKE AWARD few years ago. LPU has such a beautiful atmosphere where student can attempt to shootings or they can make short movies or documentaries. In fact LPU students get opportunity work practically in many of the LIVE Concerts held at LPU.
