| Summary, etc |
The study examines the extent of the role of gender as a determinant of the career preferences of Mass Communication students in selected private universities in South-western Nigeria (using Mountain Top University MTU and Babcock University, BU). The survey research method was adopted, with questionnaires as the research instrument for this study. Two hundred and sixty-four (264) students were selected using the simple random sampling technique. The data collected was analysed using descriptive statistics and presented using tables and charts. The findings revealed, amongst other things, that gender, to some extent, plays a role in determining the career preferences of Mass Communication students. It further revealed that the most preferred area of specialization among Mass Communication students is broadcast journalism. The study recommended that discrimination of females in the society and workforce be discouraged as this would help females see themselves as important in the society. |
