The study of journalism and Students’ choice for learning has hardly recognised in
the age of technology and proliferation of media industries. India has witnessed
unprecedented growth of private vocational journalism institutes, where Students’
choice for learning in journalism education remains inadequate attention. The
paper brings an attempt to explore the Students’ choice for learning and their
future aspirations. The empirical survey results indicate that aspirations of the
diverse Students’ communities in private institutions can not only be met through
interdisciplinary approach and cultural specific pedagogies, but social
inclusiveness in media education can bridge the gap between supply and demand
in the media sector.
