The post of IAS are filled up through the Civil Services Examination conducted by the UPSC.

According to the notification released by the UPSC, the eligibility criteria is as follows :

* The candidate should be a graduate under the scheme of 10+2+3 at least.

* The candidate should be 21 years old at least at the time of application.

There is no such subject mentioned in the notification for your graduation so you can take up any stream.

Graduation subject does not decide the eligibility for Civil Services exam.
You only need to be a graduate to be eligible for Civil services exam.Your age should be within the limit of 21-30years.
It does not impacts your eligibility if you complete your graduation from Mass communication or Engineering.
Just select a subject in Mains exam which you are strong at or preferably your graduation subject so that you have some basic knowledge and need not start from scratch.

For civil services, there is no restriction that you have any particular stream. You can choose any of the subjects for graduation.

Qualification for IAS/Civil services:
Candidate should have graduation in any stream with minimum 55% marks from a recognized university.

There is no benefit of mass communication for IAS exam. The syllabus is totally different in the civil examination. So you can choose any of the subjects and in mass communication, there are so many options for the job in private as well as in government sector.

IAS exam conducted in three stages:
Preliminary exam
Mains exam
Interview

So if you want to appear for IAS exam in future then you have to start preparing as soon as possible. That will give you benefit and help to get a good score.
