The Faculty of Mass Communication & Media Technology continues to uphold its commitment to experiential learning by encouraging students to embrace the "Learn While Doing" approach. With a strong emphasis on using credible sources and ethical journalism, students are being equipped with the skills to navigate the evolving media landscape.

Taking this vision forward, the faculty was honored to host a 5-day workshop on “Contemporary Trends in Journalism” with Ms. Kalpana Sharma, a distinguished journalist and editor known for her insightful and impactful contributions to the media industry. The workshop provided students with a unique opportunity to gain first-hand industry knowledge, explore emerging trends in journalism, and understand the significance of accuracy and reliability in news reporting.

During the interactive sessions, Ms. Sharma engaged students in practical exercises, case studies, and discussions on topics such as:

• The rise of digital journalism & AI in newsrooms
• The role of investigative reporting in a fast-paced media world
• Ethical challenges and the importance of fact-checking
• Adapting to multimedia storytelling for modern audiences

The workshop not only bridged the gap between academia and industry but also ignited a passion for responsible journalism among budding media professionals.

Students who attended the workshop found the experience eye-opening and enriching. As the Faculty of Mass Communication & Media Technology continues to provide students with hands-on learning experiences, such initiatives reaffirm its commitment to shaping the next generation of media professionals who uphold journalistic integrity and innovation.
