I want to be a journalist. What should I do after 12th?

If you are interested to become a journalist, you should definitely opt for a Journalism and Mass Communication programme after class 12th. These courses offer you specific subject and even more importantly skills like reporting, editing, anchoring, video shooting, using drones, mixing and editing, layout, publishing, public relations, media laws, et al. At the same time, its very important that you carefully choose a college. Prefer a college that gives you hands-on experience, for it is a completely practical course, and there are plenty of colleges out there that do nothing more than theory. I have done my Masters from PCTE Group of Institutes, though I am not from the journalism department, I often saw these students covering campus events with drones, gimble, and other sophisticated gadgets. I also visited this soundproof studio one day with a friend. It had this mixing and editing computers, software and equipment, with which students were working. Later in my final year, I saw several videos that were shared in our WhatsApp groups, which were shot and made by Journalism dept students. I was really inspired. I am certain you can find one such college in your city, or try my college also if you want.

You can choose Journalism for your Graduation course. LPU has great faculty and provides an ample amount of opportunities to the students. Exposure is what most required in this course. So, choose well.
