Hi

As per your question Jadavpur University

Jadavpur University’s recently launched MA in Journalism and Mass Communication programme has

landed during a controversy over its eligibility criteria. The varsity had set the eligibility criteria for the

two-year course as BA (Hons)/Major with minimum 50% marks obtained. This official notification has

irked many candidates . it's also being perceived as violation of the UGC's norm. Eligibility criteria

notified by the UGC in 2003 says all BA, B Com and B Sc graduates can pursue Master’s programme in

Mass Communication and Journalism.

The newly launched MA programme is meant to supply the candidates a well-rounded knowledge

through theory and practical classes. it'll be offered by Department of Adult, Continuing Education and

Extension (DACEE) of Jadavpur University. The DACEE also offers Post Graduate Diploma in Mass

Communication.

The university plans to collaborate with the Press Club, Kolkata for the programme. the primary batch

will contains 40 students and therefore the last date to use in June 9 but with the invention of

discrepancy in eligibility viz the UGC notification, the last could be extended.

“If the department violates the UGC rules, we'll check out this norm”, Suranjan Das, the administrator of

the Jadavpur University was quoted as saying by a national daily. consistent with an equivalent national

daily, he also asked the candidates to send him a memorandum regarding the lacunae (if any) within the

said course.

According to UGC, universities can admit students in professional courses through lateral entry, subject

to their discretion. the present criteria disallows students from other streams also as working journalists

to pursue the course, which has left many candidates unhappy.

Hope helpful.

Hello Sagarika,

Jadavpur University offers only  PG level course for mass communication admission in the institute. Thus the eligibility is set keeping the idea for PG admission in mind.

The University does not offer UG in mass communication.

You can try different universities for UG.
Hope this information helps you, all the best champ
