Though the Photojournalism course online may provide you the flexibility and convenience to learn at your pace and place, it lacks hands-on experience and real-time peers' guidance. Photojournalism courses online are generally cost-effective and are relatively affordable than regular courses, but they limit your networking opportunities, access to libraries and labs, and can even disrupt your studies due to technical issues.
Pursuing a Photojournalism course online can have many pros, but it comes with some cons as well. It is good to analyze both and then decide which option suits you the best.

Photojournalism is the practice of reporting through photographs, which plays an important role in raising awareness among the audience, shaping public opinion and documenting history. Photojournalists capture real-time events, offering a visual record.
Photographs add a layer of depth to the written articles, turning the stories into a more engaging and accessible element. They also can capture emotions and details that words alone can't describe. Powerful images can bring the audience's attention to social, political and environmental issues.
I hope you got your answer.
