Hi Aditya,
Mass Communications is a general course geared towards the media sector. Specializations include Journalism, Film-Making and Advertising. People with a degree in Mass Communications get recruited by news and entertainment television, magazines, production houses for TV, ad-film production houses, advertising agencies and independent film makers. While it is not necessary to have a degree to get a job in these areas, it is highly desirable and many companies prefer candidates with professional degrees. Most of the reputed institutes only offer post graduate courses. Undergraduate courses are very useful but should ideally be combined with a post graduate degree. However, if you are very sure of your choices, you can simply join a job after your undergraduate degree and work your way up. Degrees have limited relevance in the media sector.
