Journalism and Mass Communications have attracted considerable attention to and attendance of
working media practitioners as well as potential communicators covering various branches of this
field. Given that media in Nepal give high priority to skill-based knowledge, an appropriate course
imparting extensive skills, backed by theoretical knowledge, will create considerable interest in
potential students pursuing such course in the cross-section of Nepal's media industry, which has
grown dramatically since the 1990s. Skill is what counts the most in media houses, and a course
catering to such needs will go a long way in generating employment. Go to education page
