Department of Mass Communication and Journalism

Welcome to the Department of Mass Communication and Journalism

I am pleased to write a few words about the Department of Mass Communication and Journalism of Jagannath University, Dhaka which has served as a center of excellence for higher education in the field of communication and journalism since its inception in October 2009.

This department initially offered two degree programs including a four-year Bachelor's and a one-year Master’s program. Later, it launched the MPhil (Master of Philosophy), and the PhD (Doctor of Philosophy) programs.

We are going through a vibrant curriculum that combines a comprehensive blend of theoretical knowledge and practical skills. We focus on teaching hospital in journalism, thriving innovation and promoting excellence in media and communication research, and providing a platform for aspiring scholars to make significant contributions to their respective fields.

I am very proud of my faculty members for their scholarly and professional endeavors to their commitment to fostering excellence in teaching initiatives, conducting quality research, and providing hands-on skills.

Throughout the years, the graduates of the department have met success by engaging themselves in a wide range of professional fields across the globe. We aim to take pride in our further commitment to developing intellectual abilities and practical skills among our future graduates who will potentially lead to their respective professions including media houses. 

We are full-heartedly dedicated to nurturing future scholars, communicators, and responsible citizens who will make enduring contributions to the country and its people.

Thank you.
