Is it good to pursue journalism and mass communication course after class 12th? What is the fee in IIMC for the same?

Hi Himadri, You will be eligible to take up journalism in any recognised university only if you have 55% in your class 12th board exams (any stream). Students who have cleared the board exams with English as one of the best four subjects can apply for this course. After class 12th, one can take up BA in journalism and mass communication. Some colleges offer this course on the basis of the class 12th board exams result. But, a few colleges do conduct entrance tests for this. Please visit the official website of IIMC for all the details like fee structure, course information, eligibility criteria, selection procedure, etc.

If you see yourself as an ardent speaker and want to get more exposure and grow your personality then a career in journalism is the key. Mass Communication is one of the emerging career options. Also, you can pursue PG. You can also join any of the media houses depending on your interest. It could be either print media or electronic media and also the event management as well.

Yes, it is always good to pursue Journalism studies after 12th itself. AFCOS IIMCs are good without any doubt but there are few other institutes across the country which are equally good as IIMC's. Few things you should keep on your mind prior to proceed for Journalism degree. Do they have an experienced faculty (Faculty must have expertise in theory and practical both). Do they have Adequate/appropriate equipment to make you expert in handling them? Do they have Audio/Video studio to teach them practically. Are they running any Media house? Do they provide the platform to you for doing practices? Do they have such atmosphere where you can have an experience to perform practically? Do they have Industrial Tie Ups? Do they provide Teachings from external experts? Now LPU is coming on my mind because they do provide all above mentioned Salient features. LPU is producing smart and Intelligent journalists. Not only journalists you can find LPU journalism students at various sectors of Media and Entertainment. For e.g.: I know one LPU Student who got placed as a Celebrity Manager in T-series. LPU provides teaching by Doctorate faculty along with the handful practical study by experienced professionals. LPU has Adequate/appropriate equipment which they use on regular basis for making their children well trained even practically. LPU have separate Professional Audio and Large size Video Studio. Whereas, Multimedia and Animation adds on the spark to the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. LPU provides many platforms to their students to compete or perform even at National level events. Like National Media fests and other prestigious competitions. One of the LPU student won DADA SAHEB PHALKE AWARD few years ago. LPU has such a beautiful atmosphere where student can attempt to shootings or they can make short movies or documentaries. In fact, LPU students get opportunity work practically in many of the LIVE Concerts held at LPU. University has their own Narrow Casting News Channel and Web TV where students work as volunteer and few are on job taring. LPU has many Tie-Ups with prominent Media Houses. In fact many experts like Film directors, writes, Film Producers, Renowned Photographers, Renowned Journalists visits on regular basis. Online admissions are already open, one can proceed through their website. Aspirants can also call them on their toll free number.
