Introduction
In communication technology and media, the globe has witnessed a tremendous and unprecedented explosion. All barriers have been broken down, and the entire global community appears to have come together as one. And it is in this context that mass-communication as a field of study and as a job becomes so valuable and desirable.
Journalism is merely a little part of mass communication. Mass media is, to a large extent, a modern reality that affects every element of human life. Furthermore, the concept of those who work in the media has changed dramatically. Careers in mass communication not only pay well, but also provide a lot of satisfaction and opportunities to express oneself creatively. One can pursue a Bachelor in mass communication as well as masters and Phd in this field.

Prospects for Employment
A professional course in mass communication colleges prepares students for careers in cinema and television production, publishing, journalism, public relations, editing, filmmaking, direction, production and scriptwriting among other fields. In a nutshell, Mass Communication broadens a person's professional possibilities.
A mass communication professional might choose a position based on his or her particular interests and inclinations. Talented and trained individuals can find attractive and well-paying careers as journalists, screenwriters, actors, directors,VJs, editors, producers, and RJs.

Paycheck Packet
Candidates from well-known institutes such as IIMC, MCRC Jamia, Symbiosis College, and others earn appealing placements and good wages following their studies, whilst students from lesser-known institutes must work hard to get placed. A public communication professional's starting compensation could range from Rs 12,000 to Rs 25,000. A professional might expect a greater compensation after 5 years of job experience, ranging from Rs 50,000 to Rs 1,00,000 per month.

Supply vs. Demand
In the field of mass communication, demand and supply play a significant influence. Many high-profile journalists have lost their jobs as a result of the global recession, and recent graduates have had a difficult time finding work.
On the contrary, there is a scarcity of skilled specialists in the fields of mass media, new entertainment, and news channels, and demand will only increase as new channels are launched. Foreign investment in the media sector is likely to result in the creation of new jobs in the industry.
