ABSTRACT
The researcher in this work focused on the Attitude of Mass Communication Students Towards Journalism As a career. It is believed that majority of Mass Communication students from different higher institutions in our country like Enugu State University of Science and Technology (ESUT) and Institute of Management and Technology (IMT), Enugu no longer have the zeal to practice their journalism profession. This is why the researcher dimmed it fit to research into the Image of Mass Communication Students. Research question are constructed to guide the researcher in her study. Relevant related literatures are reviewed to show that similar research work has been carried out, and a theoretical framework has been discussed to support the study. Survey method was adopted and this made it possible for the researcher to select an appropriate sample size of 273, using appropriate tools like questionnaire and personal interview, the researcher was able to study a population too large to be observed personally. The researcher adopted a simple percentage and frequency table with simple descriptive analysis to explain the tables. Hypotheses which are formed from the research questions are tested to enable the researcher know if certain claims she made on this work received statistical support or not. At the end of the study the researcher was able to find out that Mass Communication Students have Negative Attitude Towards Journalism as a Career. Also that there should be a more sustainable sociology of journalism training and education which should sustain curricula of relevance and weed out all the numerous mush-room journalism institution across the nation. And government should provide a conducive environment for journalism study to close the gap between developed and developing countries.
