PhD Journalism
Course Description
PhD Journalism (3 years) at Shoolini University emphasises on research and teaching skills. Scholars are encouraged to develop their own approach (both theoretical and methodological) to the study of journalism, while learning and collaborating with faculty who have a diverse range of specialties.
Through this doctoral degree, they gain a solid foundation while exploring the theories and methods that shape mass communication research. The multidisciplinary program studies traditional journalism, the expanding boundaries of the industry, including the audience’s impact on news production, social media’s role in news, the new technologies shaping practice, and more.

I wholeheartedly recommend the PhD in Journalism program at Shoolini. Despite my initial stress, the exceptional support from my mentors made the journey smooth and enjoyable. The real-life media experiences on campus, including the Shoolini Newsletter that students publish, along with hands-on training as TV anchors, reporters, and Radio Jockeys to produce Shoolini Samvad, Shoolini TV and Shoolini Radio enhanced my experience manifold.
