The KSU Mass Communication Department has come a long way in the field of mass communication studies as represented in the up-to-date academic programmes provided at the level of the BA and MA.
The Department embraces an academic vision and mission that aim at creating one-of-a- kind competent media figures who can contribute effectively to our country and enrich the media field in both the public and private sectors with their experiences and the skills they acquired while studying in the Department.
Through the academic programmes it provides, the Mass Communication Department aspires to reform the structure of national and regional media as it aims at building media figures capable of dealing with the new developments in the field of traditional and modern media.
The Department pays good attention to updating its academic programmes as this lays the foundation of one of the strategic frameworks that should be adopted in this age of digital communication. Therefore, updating academic programmes is a deeply-rooted policy and a characteristic of the department that aspires to be one of the leading departments of mass communication at the regional and international levels. In addition, the Department is always keen on establishing partnership relationships with media organisations in- and outside the Kingdom through visits, training and twinning programmes to broaden the horizons of our students and build their personalities academically and professionally so that they are able to succeed in the different fields and to give back to their country.
