Teaching:
Major achievement during the last five years:
The BoS revised the syllabus and a new curriculum is in place with a major shift from a one-year BCJ/MCJ course to a two-year MCJ Program from academic year 2011-2012.
Choice Based Credit System (CBCS) was implemented in the University from academic year 2010. The Department as part of CBCS introduced two inter-disciplinary courses:
Freelance Journalism Publishing
The inter-disciplinary courses are very popular at the University and a record 125 candidates opted for the course.
The syllabus has been revised every two-years and a new curriculum is in place. It was done with inputs from experts from the media industry on the Board of Studies, board of paper setters and examiners of the department. The department embarked on updating the syllabus of all courses for imparting skills in emerging areas. This is reflected in the recruitment of our students in large numbers in various media organizations.
Digital outreach:
The enabling of WI-FI atmosphere was possible in the Department due to the support of CAS under E-Lab. Today, the entire communication process is digitized. Routine student information is routed through emails/SMS. Update like examination dates/internal and semester exams/lectures are provided to students and faculty. Communication between the admin-staff-students has improved resulting in quicker spread of information to all.
Audio-visual interface in classrooms:
In the Department, the grant provided by UGC under CAS ensured that LED TV screens (four) are put up in each of the class room. The teacher now has the option to plug his pen drive and play video as an effective classroom teaching aid. All teachers are making power point lessons and are subsequently mailing for student use. The audio-visual interface has eased the complex theoretical understanding of students.
One LED TV screen is put up in the viewing room where TATA SKY connection provides access to the entire news and entertainment network in the country. News is played throughout the working hours in the viewing room.
Consultancy/Advisory role:
The faculty is involved in consultancy and advisory role with government, NGOs and Corporate sector. Here is the list of institutions the faculty is associated with:
Osmania University

UNESCO, Paris
Somyamurthy Thondaman Foundation, Sri Lanka
Our faculty is also associated with a host of other universities, professional bodies, media institutions and private educational centres in the country.
New Knowledge:
New Media or online journalism is fast catching up. In order to attune our students with the skills to handle new media jobs, we have earmarked a full paper on New Media Technologies in the second semester of the MCJ course. A new lab for news processing with 13 Apple Macintosh computers and 13 HP computers has been set up for hands on and online training. The Department subscribes to PTI online service to facilitate hands-on training of students in various skills like keyboard editing, using current software like “In-design” “Quark Express” for page makeup. The students produce a daily news bulletin “Telenews”, which help them in real life situations as copy editors in newspapers and magazines. Adobe Photoshop software installed in all computers in the e-lab help students in cropping pictures for different publications got out by the department.
Computer Aided Reporting (CAR) helps our students to file stories for the bi-monthly publication titled Osmania Courier. Our emphasis on knowledge acquisition is through skill oriented training and our e-lab facilitation has helped us to impart skills based on new techniques.
