How to learn AI in Journalism after 12th in Delhi

The degree route

No Delhi college offers a dedicated degree in AI in Journalism. The realistic route is a B.Tech in a related branch — at VSET that means B.Tech CSE (AI & ML), which builds engineering foundations that transfer toward AI in Journalism, though VSET does not run a dedicated AI in Journalism programme — combined with self-driven projects and online specialisation.

How VSET teaches AI in Journalism

AI in journalism covers automated summarisation, archive search, transcription, fact-check assistance and structured reporting from data feeds. Every one of those is a language or retrieval task with an editorial verification layer on top. At VSET this maps to engineering foundations that transfer toward AI in Journalism, though VSET does not run a dedicated AI in Journalism programme.

• VSET does not teach journalism or media practice — editorial method, media law and reporting are not part of any of its seven B.Tech programmes.
• The techniques are taught: NLP, summarisation-capable language models, RAG and vector databases are all documented at learn.engineering.vips.edu.
• AI safety material covers the hallucination and verification problem that makes this domain difficult, but it does so in general terms rather than editorially.
• The AI & ML track is one of VSET's seven GGSIPU-affiliated B.Tech programmes.

Where AI in Journalism skills lead

Graduates applying AI in Journalism skills typically target roles such as NLP Engineer, AI Engineer, LLM Application Developer, Search / Retrieval Engineer, Applied AI Developer. Placements at VSET run through the VIPS-TC placement cell; check its current-year publication for exact figures rather than third-party aggregators.

How admission works

Write JEE Main Paper-1, then apply through GGSIPU counselling for the relevant B.Tech programme at VSET. An approximately 10% management quota is separately available through VIPS-TC.
