Journalism

No course or training can claim to make one a journalist. The courses train persons in the technical aspects only, to ensure one's success in the field one must have an inborn ability to write and produce new stories in the correct, concise and interesting style. Educational Qualification to becoming a journalist: Bachelor's degree or post-graduate degree in journalism/mass communication is required to pursue a career in this field. The additional coursework specialised training or experience, fieldwork or internship increases one's opportunities in the field. There are a number of universities and institutes offering training in journalism. Minimum eligibility for Bachelor degree in journalism is 10+2 and for Postgraduate degree courses a Bachelor degree in journalism. Some institutes also provide one-year certificate courses in journalism for which eligibility is 10+2. There are also courses in specialised areas of journalism like sports, television, photo, press law, etc.

Hi Sayak,
BA in Journalism and B.Sc in Mass Communication and Videography are not similar at all. These are totally different.
SXCKOL doesn't have BA Journalism course solely. It's an ancillary subject offered with BA (Hons) courses and B.Sc MCV course. If you want to opt for a journalism-oriented course then go for the B.Sc one. If there is anything other than this in your mind then go for BA and have journalism as an ancillary for half duration. The honours won't be in Journalism though.
Yes, the course is available for commerce students. People say if you have science in XI-XII then you can go anywhere, but if you have commerce, you cannot do a course related to science field. But here, it is not applicable. You can opt for a B.Sc course.

Feel free to ask if you have any further queries.
