Hii There,

Yes, it is possible to pursue a journalism course after completing your 12th grade. Many universities and colleges offer undergraduate programs in journalism, mass communication, or media studies that you can enroll in directly after finishing your secondary education. These programs typically provide a comprehensive understanding of journalism, including print, broadcast, and digital media.

To pursue a journalism course after 12th grade, you can explore options such as Bachelor of Journalism and Mass Communication (BJMC), Bachelor of Media Studies, or similar undergraduate programs. Make sure to check the specific eligibility criteria and admission requirements of the institutions you are interested in, as they may vary.


I hope this answers your question.

Thanks

Hello aspirant,

One of the most well-liked journalism programmes after the 12th grade is the Bachelor of Journalism and Mass Communication (BJMC, frequently shortened to BAJMC). The two are combined throughout the course to provide students with a comprehensive understanding of modern journalism. Radio and television journalism, cybermedia, media law and ethics, and other topics are covered in this course. This course is a specific, useful course of study since it will teach students journalistic processes and tactics and how they interact with mass communication.
