Visual Communication colleges in India

Dear Shreesha, Both courses have their own specialisation in their own way. What matter is your interest area whether you want to go in B.Sc. Visual communication or B.Sc. Multimedia, set your goals and achieve them. Regards.

Hi Prakash! It depends where your interest lies. Both the fields have an immense scope. It's upto you which field attracts you the most. If a career in Information and Technology appeals you more, and you think you have techie's brain, you should go for BCA. If you think you are creative and writing, editing, photography, film, animation, design and other aspects of the media attract you more, you should go for a career in visual communication.

Visual Communication courses are offered at various levels, types, and modes. Hence, the entrance exams for their admission may also differ.
