Journalism

Hi Nitika,
Journalism in India has considerable employment scope these days, with media houses opening new channels or newspapers on a regular basis. While salaries are shooting up, the pool of skilled and qualified journalists is not keeping pace. Without a sufficient number of good reporters and editors, the challenge that the profession faces is of enforcing more rigorous professional standards.
Though print media is read widely and makes money, Indian news organisations are now using online technology to deliver the benefits of the Internet: the most current and up-to-date information, ability to search the content and instantly share information with others.

Hi Debjani,
Preparing for entrance tests of Journalism and mass communication requires you to be much updated on the current affairs, general knowledge and language perfection. Different colleges have different level of entrance examinations for this field and particulary the good ones are harder to get such as IIMC, Symbiosis, Xaviers or Jamia for that matter.
For a Bachelor degree, you won't require a hard-on schedule or sleep less nights for the entrance as most of the colleges offering this course are private and have a smooth entrance. Colleges such as from DU and IP University have different criteria for admission as one is based on the percentage and the other being based on a Common entrance test.
A book that you might refer to for the sake of absolute guidance about the learning of Personal Interview and the curriculum will be BJMC by Arihant Publications.
A personal interview however depends all on your spontaneous and healthy responses to the interviewer based on how much you know.
I hope you find it useful.
All the best.

Hi Rahul,
Journalism has a lot of scope in the present scenario. From a small newspaper to a big news channel, journalists are considered the right hand of media and the transparent shield to connect the Government with the public. Journalism today is more than an art of writing as it includes creative submission of the mindset and skillful passion towards your approach of the subjects as it is one of the most competitive field in the market at present. The scope is endless but you'll have to begin from small. Depending on the colleges/institutes you choose, exposure you get, the practical knowledge you attain will define most of your further future. You can become a TV journalist, print journalist, radio journalist, fashion journalist, cyber journalist, editor, news writer, proof reader and much more after deciding your field of interest.
I hope you'll make an informed decision. Feel free to raise more queries. Hit like or mark it as the best answer if it helped.
All the best.

Hi Sarika,
It is advised that you check the alumni speak section to get an idea what the alumni thinks about the institute. The training and placement unit of the institute is responsible for providing world class job opportunities to the undergraduate and postgraduate students after graduation for suitable jobs in the industry and various private and public sector organizations.
No institute can guarantee you placements. It's just purely based on how you utilize your abilities and skills at the right time. I would suggest you to contact the training and placement department personally for accurate numbers.
I hope this information helps. Please feel free to revert.
Wish you luck.
