A Journalism (hons) programme typically refers to an undergraduate degree programme that focuses on developing students' skills in journalistic writing, reporting, and research. This programme usually takes around three to four years to complete and may include coursework in areas such as media law, ethics, digital media, and media management. Students who complete a Journalism (hons) programme often graduate with a Bachelor of Journalism or a Bachelor of Arts in Journalism. On the other hand, a Journalism course can refer to a variety of educational offerings, including short-term training courses, Diploma programs, and Certificate programs. These courses are typically shorter in duration than an undergraduate degree programme and may focus on specific aspects of Journalism, such as news writing, investigative reporting, or multimedia journalism. While both a journalism (hons) programme and a Journalism course can provide students with valuable skills and knowledge in the field of journalism, a journalism (hons) programme typically offers a more comprehensive and in-depth education in the subject. Additionally, a journalism (hons) programme may be more beneficial for students who wish to pursue a career in journalism in the long term, as it provides a recognised degree that can help with employment opportunities and career advancement. NIMCJ provide journalism course like BAJMC and MAJMC.
