After completing 12th, you can go for a degree in mass communication. Public relations (PR) is the use of communications channels to manage public perception of an individual or an organisation. A PR person not only should have flair for writing but should be someone who communicates well. He/she must be well-equipped with the updates of media industry. Management and planning are the skills that are required to keep you upfront.
PR can be used to protect, enhance or build reputations through the media, social media, or self-produced communications.The tools include preparing and disseminating press releases, media pitches, creating and executing events designed for public outreach and media relations, crisis PR strategies and social media promotions.
Bachelor of mass media is a good option and yes, it is considered a legitimate degree outside India.

As this question is posted in this category of mass communication, it seems to inquire about the prospects as well as awareness about the three different terms buy identical in nature when it comes to mass media studies.
Mass communication is understood as the communication done with the masses through various modes and medium of communication. It does cover all forms of media, including new media.
Journalism is sharing of information via defined channels/platforms/media. It also involves the collection, selection, and assimilation of news to masses.
Mass media has to be taken as identical to mass comm. When we see the objectives we call the assimilation as mass communication, when we see the tool, we call it mass media.
In India, as well abroad, the courses might be running under different nomenclature at the UG level buy basically these remain the same meaning titles only.
There might be some specialisation in one of these but that is part of the curriculum and does not depend on the titles.
These three are interrelated because they run through the same segment of humanities and social sciences. Besides, most of the universities offer the same curriculum under different headings.

Bachelor Degree in mass comm. From distance learning is offered by numberless institutions and universities all over India and even abroad. There are online certifications as well. We need to give it a balanced view rather than simply rejecting one or approving.
Distance education is meant to substitute the absence of regular education of any Degree when the learner is, for all valid reasons, unable to pursue regular studies. Secondly, distance education is a better option when one already has skills to work with along with some experience as well.
Going by the description shared above, this is suggested that a distance learning degree in mass media (as well as any skill based and skill oriented course/subject) shall be avoided as much as possible.
This is also to be accepted that distance education has more failures in its credit in India. Just a couple of days back, Haryana Government terminated the services of those who did a technical degree through distance mode. It was as per Supreme Court ruling.
I wish to suggest that if possible, do this course as a regular student and from a good institution.

At NIU, an integral part of the career development programme is placement, which is undertaken by the Corporate Resource Center and Placement Cell (CRCP). The CRCP prepares the students for a successful future and not merely a job.

During their academic tenure the students go through a well planned rigorous course curriculum along with real life practical trainings and internships in reputed research institutes and/or corporate houses.
The academic curriculum is so structured that it requires the students to undergo a mandatory summer internship of 6-8 weeks with reputed organizations. The internship helps the students to apply their classroom learning of theoretical concepts to real life management settings. This process enables to sharpen their ability to diagnose, analyze and resolve problems. The option of short term live projects with leading companies is also provided to the students. This runs parallel to their academic sessions and gives them valuable insight into the workings of the industry.
