The Department of Media Studies at Christ University is one of the most proactive and enthusiastic departments I have ever been part of. Its learned faculty compliment each other’s expertise and academic interests very well.
As a student of the JPEng Programme, I admired how the coursework and teaching was always designed to stimulate interdisciplinary learning, drawing insights from disciplines such as cultural studies, gender studies and film studies. I’m also part of the department’s thriving alumni network that allows for resourceful exchange of information.
In my capacity as a doctoral scholar, I have observed there is growing impetus within the department to encourage rigourous research involving student-teacher collaborations. From my prolonged engagement with the department, as a curious student to a guest faculty who has taught modules to postgraduate students, I vouch for the members of staff to be approachable and committed to train future media practitioners in a professional manner.
