Hello, As the name itself suggests, mass communication deals with a wider range of media to communicate different stories, messages, facts or statistics to the public. Courses in advertising, film making, television, journalism, etc. Fall in this bracket. Journalism, on the other hand, is specific to delivering news to public through mainly two platforms, I. e. print media or electronic media. Print media or print journalism largely covers newspapers and magazines while electronic journalism is the reporting of news through television and radio. Of course, with a vast array of opportunities and ideas coming up nowadays, mass communication and journalism are further divided into a lot of different streams. So, while choosing a course in these, keep your interests in mind and foray into this huge pool of opportunities. I hope this will help you. Thank you.
