Academic scholarship in Film, Media and Communications at
the University began in 2004 with the birth of the School of Film and Mass
Communication. The courses became a great success and now attracts students
from all over the India.
The Faculty of Film, Media Studies and Technology (FFMST) supports and
encourages a variety of research interests and approaches to the study of
media, communications and information technologies. The academic staff
members derive from a range of disciplines that have had an important place
in the development of the study of Media, TV & Video Production, Media
Management and communications, including cultural theory, film theory,
engineering, linguistics, education, law, management, Human Resource
Development, counselling, politics, psychology, and sociology.
We promote and engage in multi-disciplinary research that embraces
different epistemological and methodological approaches and believe that
research can have value by being theoretical sound and having real-world
applications.
FFMST is running a Community Radio Station (CRS), Radio Adan FM 90.4 MHz,
addressing itself to the residents of Allahabad. The students, under the
supervision of faculty members produce the radio programmes and get a space
that provides an excellent hands-on learning experience.
Students get opportunities for all round development of personality by
participating in co-curriculum and extra curriculum activities. Researches
of the media world feed our teaching. Students therefore benefit from being
taught by academics who are involved in leading edge research in their
specialist fields. |
