Hi Soumitra, Keeping in mind your interest in communication/English, you can opt for either Journalism or PR / Corporate Communication. Starting with Journalism, I would say Journalism as a career is very challenging and requires a lot of hard work and patience. To become a good journalist you need to have a good command over English, Hindi and your regional language. Apart from good English you also have to be a good listener and an interpreter, so that you are able to convey exactly what is important for the people and how will it effect them. To know more about journalism you can check the below link https://www.shiksha.com/search/index?keyword=Journalism&location=&searchType=blog&cat_id=-1&countOffsetSearch=25&startOffSetSearch=0&subLocation=-1&cityId=-1&cType=-1&courseLevel=-1&subType=0&showCluster=-1&channelId=home_page As for PR, I would say PR is a very good course and has a lot of demand in the professional market. PR requires more of personality and communication skills, one needs to get his or her work done. A PR is basically the face of the organization and is responsible for all the client meetings and getting business for the organization, so one has to be really convincing and of course PR pays "well".For more info you may visit the below links https://www.shiksha.com/getArticleDetail/139/Public-Relations-Nature-Of-Work-Employment-Avenues https://www.shiksha.com/getArticleDetail/1781/Public-Relations-The-Silent-Communication-Arm Few good institutes for Journalism or PR are IIMC, MICA, XIC,etc. For the list of more institutes, please refer to the below link, it might help tinyurl.com/2cfpuhe Hope this helps.
