   Is communications and media Arts a good field to get into?
   
   I am proud of my daughter who graduated from H.S. on the honor roll.  She is autistic and we are looking into going on to a local state college.  The media program attracted her and we are applying. So courses are photography, computer grapics, visual arts.  Just wondering if there is a nationwide demand for this field.  She will want to work locally and not have to transfer to another part of the nation.

   You are right to be proud of your daughter.  I don't know if there is a demand for people working this field, but I do think that the subjects will bring her much pleasure and also the opportunity to perhaps look at self-employed in the future should this be her desire.

      Even if this doesn't make a career, it can be a great hobby.  When she toured this department it sparked her interest.  We have a couple tv stations in our area and newspaper

   There is actually steady demand for graphic designers. Between advertisements, websites, and magazines, there will always be need for artists capable of layout and logo design.

   The parents should always allow their children to pursue academic courses, in which they are really interested. So, if your daughter is really interested in communications and media arts, you should let her join the course. There is a real demand of persons, who are qualified in this particular field. If she is genuinely interested in this field, she will find her way to success. My good wishes for her.
