The Bharati Vidyapeeth Institute offers a Bachelor of Journalism and Mass Communication (BJMC) program known for its well-qualified faculty, many holding PhDs, with a faculty-to-student ratio of about 1:10. The 3-year program includes 8 subjects per year across two semesters, with exams in January and May and compulsory internships in June-July. While the curriculum is comprehensive, there's a call for updates to enhance practical, job-related skills. Placement opportunities commence from the third semester, requiring an internship certificate. Companies like Zomato and Times of India have participated in placements, though students occasionally seek external internships via platforms like LinkedIn. Placements and internships cover diverse roles such as digital marketing and content writing. However, some students feel the placement packages could be better. Fees for the BJMC course range from Rs. 1.15 lakh to Rs. 1.2 lakh for the first year, totaling around Rs. 4 lakhs, with additional costs for library and bus services. Scholarships based on merit and need are provided by the university to support students, particularly those from reserved categories, but not by the individual colleges.
