Yes you can. However, you should have a specific goal or objective for doing so, and a road-map with a specific plan of approach. In some institutions communications is an umbrella which covers a variety of areas. For example, communications/radio- broadcasting, communications/journalism, communications/film, communications/television, etc. Personally I would focus on your primary career goal. You can always supplement your existing goals and objectives as need be. Remember to move vertically toward you goal, without distraction that can cause you to move horizontally. Moving in too many directions can cause this. Once again, focus on your primary goal.

What is the difference between a bachelor's of arts degree in Communications and Broadcast Journalism?
Generally, as someone who works in broadcast journalism, I am hesitant to hire someone to work on my news team if they were a Communications major. I see Communications majors working more in the line of public relations, corporate internal communications, human resources and things like that. And as far as students who major in broadcast journalism, I assume they know what career they want, and they have learned all about communication, but also about broadcast writing, videography, and editing. That being said, I have hired a few communications majors through the years.
