Performing arts (theatre and television) course must be leading you to a job in the related field. For example, I take the FTII or NSD course which works as an eligibility or competence certification to enter the field of theatre or commercial cinema or even television world. If the job/assignment/projects you are getting after the course are good and will certainly take you to the place where you aim to be (does not mean superstardom, but sensible, good work), do go ahead and join the work. If you still feel you have more to learn and specialise then freely go and study. Education in the domain of theater, performing arts will make you a scholar and you can enter teaching and education of the same then. Work experience in the field shall always be needed though. A career should not be delayed when you are good at obtaining a certificate.

CEPT University, formerly the Centre for Environmental Planning and Technology, is an educational institute located in Ahmedabad. The Faculty of Architecture was established as the School of Architecture in 1962. The university was approved by the UGC in 2007. The school of architecture of CEPT offers both undergraduate and postgraduate courses in architecture newly B.Arch and M.Arch. The M.Arch has some specializations like urban design, architectural design, history, theory and criticism and conservation. Ph.D in architecture is also offered.
The university has a good amount of infrastructure and also has collaborations with few international universities. It has well experienced and knowledgeable faculty members who are aimed at providing good quality education.
The college offers many opportunities for internship programmes which will be very helpful for the students to gain practical knowledge in the field. Some of the recruiters were Crisil, Liases Foras, Feedback Infra, and few other companies. The graduates were also offered good packages. The average was around 3-5 LPA.

New media is known to be the new platforms of assimilation, circulation of Information and entertainment. We can take internet as the referred new media here.
Film, Television and New Media form the trinity of the whole landscape of media industry. When this is done through a course, a media job must be preferred rather than going for a higher studies option.
You may think of opting for higher studies if only- the completed course mentioned above does not have the capability to get you a job. It means the course you have done is not from a place which gets jobs. A vocational course or a course in such fields should be done for the purpose of a job only and this involves a hands-on profile.
If one has an interest in making a career based on higher studies and has inclination towards teaching or research, there is no end to higher studies in that case.
Choose a job if it comes with strong scope otherwise, higher studies are the suggested option.

Go for a job if a good prospect is coming your way.
Justification: Media, Advertising, Marketing, Public Relations, Advt Management, Promotion, Media Production, Digital Marketing, Online Reputation Management etc a. Are such courses that must be put to use as early as possible. My rationale is not against doing higher studies, but you can keep studies along with the JOB.
Remember, that it is good to start your career in this domain as early as possible.
If the option of Higher Studies is based on absence of good job and an attractive option to Study at a Good Place then the Higher Ed option is also good.
Favour the idea of Vocational Education. As the western countries have when youngsters prefer to start their vocation early.
One more submission is that the 'course' as stated in the query has to be of good repute and for a good standing. .merely a certificate course won't do.much. There has to be a degree.

Sports journalism is a vital element of any news media organisation, and as the name suggests, it is essentially a sports reporting career. Media, I.e. Television, radio, magazines and the internet have become an essential part of one's life and sports fans turn to these for the latest updates and news in sports. It certainly would be exciting for a sports crazy individual to pursue a career dealing with sports reporting, as it involves going to sport games, sporting events, and venues, meeting with players and then reporting all this back to a sports crazy audience. To join sports journalism, a Bachelor's degree in journalism or communications is usually required. Try to do campus and community internships at radio stations, television stations, newspapers or magazines. You can start with blog writing on your favorite game, team or any particular sport. This can help you build up portfolios of self-published clips and if any sports organisation finds your blog interesting, then you stand a chance to work with them. While a career as a sports journalist may seem attractive to those who are passionate about sporting activities, many do not factor in the amount of stress this job brings with it. Sports journalists do not normally work 9 am to 5 pm jobs, but find themselves working overtime to attend games which are often held at night. Freelance sports journalists are thought to have it easier, but in order to earn a living through these means, they are also required to put in a lot of extra hours on the side. The job may involve traveling to various different places attending games and writing detailed summaries during these trips.

Final Cut Pro is the leading editing skill software which has more demand abroad than in India. There are jobs and good salaries as well but the number is less because some easy softwares are preferred over this here. The scope is good abroad.
Why I mentioned scope is because the reason of doing higher studies or going for a job depends on whether you are interested in going abroad for jobs in FCP. Not just Hollywood but TV Channels and web series world allows good work good jobs.
Hence, my submission is to go for a job because FCP will demand on field practice.
However, if your aforesaid certificate is not able to get you a job and that is an entry level course only, then of course, higher studies will be needed to gain skills.
Job seems a more sensible decision because there will be an opportunity with you to pursue some media related or mass communication degree through distance or part-time.

Hi, It will continue to be in demand for several reasons. Many engineers will avoid that field because of the attention to details it requires and the associated liability. Structural engineers are the reason people don't worry about buildings and bridges collapsing, and they demand a lot of respect.The the largest shift in materials in the future will be in composites and designs using high strength fibers that are strategically placed by structural engineers to withstand forces. I believe 3D printers will increase interest in using composite materials and they will start being utilized much more in construction in the future.nI have often been wrong about my predictions as to the future, so keep that in mind.nUnfortunately, it is very difficult to see a change as rapid as with the computer industry because unlike our industry they don't need billions of dollars to create something. I intend to say that our industry is very funding intensive and with depleting funds - it will be tough to get a rapid turnaround. Coming to the future in terms of technologies, contour grafting - 3D printing of houses has the potential to make its entry into regular housing practices. From the materials standpoint, sustainability is being stressed upon but a balance between sustainability and economy is preventing a lot of materials from making its entry - any advances on that balance can change a lot of materials we deal with. A change in design philosophies - limit design to performance-based, strength-based to durability based etc. Is happening to create a need for a change in our codes of practice and practice itself. The needed skill from labor is reducing with high tech products (like SCC, etc.). Which can make for a huge difference in terms of employed demographic and that could ultimately lead to more efficient construction methods.these years, we're seeing a lot of sustainability and full cradle-to-cradle. Also, we're seeing higher levels of integration between constructions and installations, in the name of energy efficiency. Structural engineering - at least in the building sector - is a rather conservative place, and new technologies only sift slowly through the branch. Materials are refined and so forth, but electronic technology is mostly something you add afterwards - it's not a part of the structural engineering itself. All the best.

Hi, At the expense of sounding biased, I think its pretty exciting to be a part of the urban planning, both its practice and its study as a discipline. I am an engineer by training and my graduate education in planning has incredibly expanded my worldview. On the theoretical side, the reconciliation of post-structuralist (post-modern) tradition within planning has been contentious and the concern, I think, hasn't yet subsided. How does the discipline, as a modernist project, conform to the demands of contingency, fluidity, polyvocality advanced by the post-structuralist movement, is the main question in the discipline.nTo put it simply, the demands placed by the 'real world' (ground-up participation, collaboration, adaptive governance, diversity in policy and plan making, salience of projects while maintaining plurality in process and outcomes etc.). Are pretty complex (note: not complicated) for them to be comprehended within a discipline designed to be reductionist in nature (segregation of planning departments, roles and responsibilities, capital-centric-evaluation tools like benefits-cost analysis etc., ).nHow can the top-down governance structure inject participative models of engagement? How can spatial and temporal dependencies evident in real world outcomes of policies and plans give way to a more adaptive approach? This dovetails into the practical side of planning. Issues like climate change, resource depletion challenges, environmental degradation, loss of biodiversity, ecological challenge and loss of ecosystem services etc., are extremely important issues that gain amplified focus in planning, simply because it is here that man and his environment become the main thesis, the main challenge or object of the discipline.given these theoretical and practical aspects, planning evolution is rife, in meanings ascribed as to what the discipline should be about and what roles should planners assume. One can stay current by considering how major planning associations (APA, ACSP etc.). Shape the discourse and what comes off their position on aforementioned questions. How do major planning consultancies in US and in European countries approach the discipline in their work (is it stuck in neoliberal ideologies or conducive for other traditions like communicative and new urbanist projects).note: Admittedly, my attempt in answering this question has been from a generalist theoretical perspective. All the best.

A website content writer or web content writer specializes in providing relevant content for websites. Every website has a specific target audience and requires different content. If you are a creative writer and possess the ability to create the sensation in the reader's mind, then do not worry about the demand in the future industry! However, the writing genres and target market differ.with everything turning online and every market becoming digitized, the need for content has drastically increased today. In the digital world, we have advanced medium to distribute content such as blogs, videos, podcasts, e-books and so on. When technology enables us to store and transmit information in a faster and easier way, it directly impacts the speed of our evolution. Content is a tool to attract the attention of prospects which is why it has become one of the major and important tools for digital marketing. However, there is no use of attracting attention (generating traffic) if that attention cannot be used to convert prospects into customers.
