MA PR Course at Mumbai


MA PR (Masters in public relations) was introduced in the Mumbai University Kalina campus about 4 years back. Just 4 years old and this course seem to have gained the necessary momentum and there are so many people willing to study and do their masters in Public Relations.

MA PR (Masters in public relations)  in Mumbai University Kalina campus provides the necessary exposure, which would help the students when they pass out and start working in the industry. The faculty makes sure that we get maximum exposure and prepares the students to work under sheer pressure, which is very important in order to survive in the industry. Unwrekable deadlines, assignments, keep the students on their toes all the time. The faculties of this course are very friendly with the students and help them to accomplish their goals. The university organizes for visiting faculties who are experienced and highly qualified; they also organize guest lectures where people from the industry share their experiences and their knowledge, which help the students to get a better insight of how the industry works. The Department of Communication and Journalism come together and get into the festive mood during festivals, so it is a perfect blend of all cultures and religions.

Apart from MA PR (Masters in public relations), which is a part of DCJ also known as Department of Communication and Journalism in Mumbai University Kalina campus there are other courses it offers like Masters in Communication and Journalism and Masters in Electronic Media, selection is done on the basis of entrance tests followed by a personal interview. All these courses are full time 2 years masters’ degree courses comprising of two semesters, each which sums up to four semesters for 2 years. The final semester in MA PR is completely concentrated on dissertation, which is dreaded, by most of the students but the faculty is always there to help the students wherever they face difficulty and provide all the necessary information and share their knowledge and do the best they can to make things easy for the students. The department itself has a huge library, which makes it easy for the students to refer to. All in all MA PR is in demand amongst youngsters and wouldn’t be surprising if the number keeps increasing every year. The industry requires good PR professionals and Mumbai University has set the perfect platform.

Taken for granted....

Hello people,
The title of my post might be a little confusing and you guys might wonder Why this title? Well, I chose this because i felt it was necessary to bring to light or discuss about the issue when people are taken for granted especially women. When a woman walks down the road men don't miss a single chance of degrading her or making her feel uncomfortable why?? If you see a girl/woman coming back late it definitely means that she is up to something and the next best thing that you can do is question her character which is absolutely rubbish.

Not  very long time back i encountered these roadside rascals who made it difficult for me to step of the house and then finally one fine day i decided to put my foot down and get things straight so i called 100 and make things easier and later i realized that it was as simple as dialing 100 and trust me i haven't seen them around since then, I don't know if that was a permanent solution but i definitely know that it was the best thing i could do to save my dignity. My mum thinks i should'nt have taken this step because they might come back with the intention of taking a revenge which is scary but then to come to think of it it was HIGH TIME!
That's all i have got for now will come back ASAP with more.
