I am a working professional doing a job in finance I want to switch my career into journalism please suggest some colleges and programs I can persuade with my job
Hi,
It’s great that you're planning to switch career to journalism, even while working in finance. Journalism is a field where strong communication, analytical skills, and a curious mindset matter and your background in finance could give you a better chance especially in business or financial journalism. Another thing to keep in mind that you're a working professional, you’ll probably want a program that offers flexibility like evening classes, weekend lectures or, part-time.
There are some college/program options you can consider:
1. Indian Institute of Mass Communication (IIMC) Delhi & other centres,Offers a 1-year PG Diploma in Journalism,Known for its practical training and Some short-term certificate programs are also available.
2. Asian College of Journalism (Chennai),offers a 1-year PG Diploma in Journalism,full-time, but worth exploring if you plan to take a career break.
3. Symbiosis Institute of Media and Communication (SIMC), Pune it's offers PG programs in mass communication, check if part-time or distance learning options are available.
