School Of Media Studies
About The School
The School of Media Studies was established with the aim of offering quality education, training, and research in the dynamic field of Media and Mass communication. The journey began in the academic year 1999-2000, with the launch of a Postgraduate course in Library and Information Sciences. In 2008-09, the school introduced the M.A. in Mass Communication and Journalism, and later, in 2014-15, it expanded further with the launch of the M.A./M.Sc. in Electronic Media. Since then, the School has been steadily growing as a vibrant centre for media education and research.
Inspired by the words of renowned media theorist Marshall McLuhan, who said “The world became a global village”, the School designs its curriculum with a global yet socially grounded perspective. Under the visionary leadership of Hon’ble Vice Chancellor Dr. Manohar Chaskar, the School emphasizes value-based education, multidisciplinary learning, and global competencies.
The School is committed to nurturing media professionals, scholars, and researchers who are creative, thoughtful, and socially responsible. Our alumni are successfully working in various fields — as journalists, reporters, news anchors, sub-editors, public relations officers, media educators, and independent researchers.
