i want to persue post graduation in journalism. what is the criteria to get admission in delhi university?

Hi, Journalism is a field that is worth working. A lot of students are getting attracted to this field nowadays. This is mostly due to the fact that a career in journalism can be challenging as well as highly rewarding. Many Indian colleges offer students with journalism course at the graduate and postgraduate level. Those who are interested in a career in the field of journalism must be completely confident and should have a good personality along with capability to write and present correctly. In addition to this, an inquisitive mind and good communication skills will be most beneficial for them. Students stand the chance of getting jobs with news channels such as NDTV, Discovery, BBC and the CNN and with leading newspapers such as The Times of India, the Indian Express and The Economic Times, etc. Some of the colleges offering your desired course are CRAFT, IP College, DCAC, Kamala Nehru, LSR, Amity school of Journalism and Communication, IIMM, IMCS, etc. And for the eligibility, I would say that you need to go through entrance exams. So would advice you to contact the institute officials directly. Hope this helps. Feel free to raise queries or close the query by liking or marking it as the best answer. All the best!

Hi Pallavi, Post Graduate courses in Journalism prepare students to get trained in wide range of skills which involve gathering of information or news, editing it and presenting it in multiple media vehicles. Although bachelor's degree in journalism is desirable yet graduates from any discipline can opt for the same provided they possess keen interest and passion for the subject. There are many institutes offering various post graduation programs in journalism but as per your concern with Delhi University the eligibility criteria says that you need to be a graduate from a recognized university with at least 50% marks followed by an entrance examination. Information for the same can be seen on the official website of Delhi University. For your knowledge good command over the language and spontaneity can help one complete the course with flying color. Post graduates in Journalism are finding a wide array of career options to pursue now a days with digital and visual media getting popular across the country.

Hi Pallavi, Well there are very few good colleges that offer a Bachelors course in Journalism. And as you have specifically mentioned DU, it will be a very hard task as there are very few colleges offering a Journalism course in DU. 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 tinyurl.com/28amsul (Simply copy paste the url in the address bar) Some of the colleges that you might you look for are: IP DCAC Kamla Nehru LSR etc. The best option for you would be to go for a Bachelors in English or Political Science hons and simultaneously pursue a Diploma in Journalism.
