2-Year Program In Media Studies

Technological disruptions have upended traditional media and marketing consumption and dissemination formats. If prospective entrants in the mass communication field have to be updated about the medium, they need to be in constant touch with real-world working environments even before they step into the arena. The purpose of our 2 Year Program in Media Studies is to familiarize students with the constantly evolving media. The curriculum will cover various aspects of working in a marketing and advertising agency reporting for the print as well as digital and broadcast news media. Focusing on providing industry-standard skills, our faculty consists of professionals with the best domain knowledge.

Students will be exposed to industry best practices and have opportunities to gain real-life experience through a Capstone Project after completion of their first year. The project is designed to apply the student’s consolidated learning in a practical setting by making him an integral part of a media-based company. On completion of the Capstone project, the student is expected to propose a unique, definite and relevant business solution to resolve the problem for the company.

Solving a real-world problem for the project partner will not only improve his professional knowledge and skills but also demonstrate the student’s work ethic, dedication and potential to prospective employers. The 2 Year Program in Media Studies begins in July 2023.

We recommend students to enroll for the Master of Arts in Journalism & Mass Communication (MAJMC) by IGNOU. The same will be facilitated and supported by the team at Lexicon Institute of Media & Animation. IGNOU Degrees are recognized by all member universities of the Association of Indian Universities (AIU) and are at par with Degrees/Diplomas/Certificates of all Indian Universities/Institutions, as per UGC. The Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), established by an Act of Parliament in 1985, has continuously striven to build an inclusive knowledge society through inclusive education. It has tried to increase the Gross Enrollment Ratio (GER) by offering high-quality teaching through the Open and Distance Learning (ODL) mode.
