I think i'd need to do a degree in journalism and visual media but im unsure, im going to talk to my career adviser about it soon.

Im also really intreasted in becoming a graphic designer also, can you mix and match the two?

if you could supply me with any information i'd really appreciate it, or if you yourself work for a magazine i'd really like to know what its like.

Answer 1

Apart from journalism you can also opt for Mass Communication.

A decade back, mass communication classes used to had only a handful number of students but now scenario has changed immensely. The vast job opportunities thrown by it in different areas like Newspapers, journals, advertising firms, radio, production houses, publication houses and Television are enough to fascinate any student towards taking up this course vis-à-vis others. Apart from number of jobs, the challenge, creative satisfaction and good remuneration package that these jobs are some of the other factors for the students to move towards it. Plus, if one wants name and fame this is the best field. By taking up professions like Radio Jockeys or Anchors one can shot to fame instantly.
