Currently, the field of journalism is experiencing a shift towards digital platforms such as the internet, mobile devices, data journalism and other emerging technologies. This change is leading to a transformation in how journalism is practiced and necessitating the development of new skills, techniques, and approaches by practitioners. As a result, contemporary journalists must fulfill a variety of roles, requiring not only a solid grasp of emerging social trends but also specialized expertise and knowledge. By enrolling in this programme, aspiring digital journalists will gain a deeper understanding of the challenges associated with journalism in the Digital Age, which will prepare them to succeed in the rapidly-evolving media industry. During the first and second semesters, the focus is on helping students understand the role of Journalism within the broader context of social sciences such as political science, economics, and sociology. They will receive training in writing and develop their skills in reporting and editing to be successful in the field of written communication. In the third semester students are introduced to the nuances of the constitution and politics. Special emphasis is given in the fourth semester to the field of multimedia production, on-field experience and also the first hand understanding of social issues through service learning. The third year provides the budding journalist with the knowledge of digital journalism, media research and so on. In the final year, students will expose themselves to media psychology, solutions journalism and environmental journalism along with independent research projects.
Practical elements such as lab journals, workshops, seminars, campaigns, or news productions are incorporated to support each paper. Additionally, students will be required to gain skills in editing software. The Journalism & Digital Media programme includes sixteen core papers that cover a diverse range of topics in the field of journalism. There are skill enhancement courses related to writing and reporting. Starting from the sixth semester, students will have the opportunity to choose three electives to specialize in. In order to gain practical experience, an internship is mandatory for students at the end of the second semester. The theory courses aim to provide students with a broad understanding of the field, while the practical and skill-based courses will equip them for the job. Having a comprehensive knowledge of various subjects helps journalists gain perspective and write intelligently in the proper context for the general readership. The Department of Media Studies will leverage the expertise of professionals from different fields to provide students with the best possible exposure. Experienced journalists will also be invited to participate in events like “Feel the Beat” to share their knowledge and expertise. Students of journalism will be expected to regularly produce lab journals and from the fourth semester onwards, they will be responsible for creating a newspaper, television news bulletin, and digital publication.

Currently, the field of journalism is experiencing a shift towards digital platforms such as the internet, mobile devices, data journalism and other emerging technologies. This change is leading to a transformation in how journalism is practiced and necessitating the development of new skills, techniques, and approaches by practitioners. As a result, contemporary journalists must fulfill a variety of roles, requiring not only a solid grasp of emerging social trends but also specialized expertise and knowledge. By enrolling in this programme, aspiring digital journalists will gain a deeper understanding of the challenges associated with journalism in the Digital Age, which will prepare them to succeed in the rapidly-evolving media industry. During the first and second semesters, the focus is on helping students understand the role of Journalism within the broader context of social sciences such as political science, economics, and sociology. They will receive training in writing and develop their skills in reporting and editing to be successful in the field of written communication. In the third semester students are introduced to the nuances of the constitution and politics. Special emphasis is given in the fourth semester to the field of multimedia production, on-field experience and also the first hand understanding of social issues through service learning.

Practical elements such as lab journals, workshops, seminars, campaigns, or news productions are incorporated to support each paper.

The Journalism & Digital Media programme includes sixteen core papers that cover a diverse range of topics in the field of journalism. There are skill enhancement courses related to writing and reporting. Starting from the sixth semester, students will have the opportunity to choose three electives to specialize in. In order to gain practical experience, an internship is mandatory for students at the end of the second semester. The theory courses aim to provide students with a broad understanding of the field, while the practical and skill-based courses will equip them for the job. Having a comprehensive knowledge of various subjects helps journalists gain perspective and write intelligently in the proper context for the general readership. The Department of Media Studies will leverage the expertise of professionals from different fields to provide students with the best possible exposure. Experienced journalists will also be invited to participate in events like “Feel the Beat” to share their knowledge and expertise.

Liberal Arts, at CHRIST (Deemed to be) University, Bannerghatta Road Campus is dedicated to offering courses and programs that focus on a broad, interdisciplinary approach to education. Liberal Arts encompasses a range of subjects focussed around the themes of environment, social justice, peace-building, gender and intersectionality, history and material culture, psychology, media studies, communication, industry and innovation – all of which is aligned with the idea of sustainability and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Liberal Arts Program also refers to the concept of globalization in all its forms – including political, biological, digital, cultural, economic, and most importantly – historical. With courses designed to equip its undergraduate students with a plethora of skills like critical thinking, research writing, analysis, performing and visual arts and culture, language, communication, creativity, as well as the know-hows of being industry-ready, the Liberal Arts undergraduate program is – one of its kind – in striving to enable its students to be competent and knowledgeable problem-solvers who will be ready to address contemporary issues in today’s world. The aim of the Liberal Arts is to nurture well-rounded individuals who are socially responsible, intellectually enriched, effective communicators and above all, are compassionate thinkers with a penchant to build a better world. We at Liberal Arts, firmly believe that new ideas come from ‘thinking outside the box’ and developing new perspectives that combine diverse ways of knowing the world. With our enabling environment, empowered leadership and governance structure, we are breaking away from the pattern of conventional educational structures and creating a space for student-centric flexible learning systems which allows students to explore and curate their own visions and aspirations – incorporating creative expressions like music, theater, art and sports into the curriculum as well. Our majors’ program has been designed to offer a selection of stimulating coursework that prioritizes class discussion, featuring dedicated and experienced faculty, and prepares students for an inspiring career.
Within this approach, the Liberal Arts degree allows the students to tailor their own specialisation according to their own unique interests by choosing from amongst seven ‘Interdisciplinary Thematic Tracks’ as listed below: Environment and Sustainability Gender and Minority Studies Urban Studies Healthcare and Wellness Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure Peace and Conflict Studies Communication Studies
The seven thematic tracks allow seven possible trajectories for a student’s career growth after completing the degree including employment opportunities in the fields of research, teaching and learning, policy and practice, development and advocacy, industry and consultancy, arts and creativity. The foundational knowledge acquired in these seven thematic areas forms the basis of a knowledge pool that will enable deeper understanding and engagement without necessarily being bound or limited by one particular discipline in their formative years in the university. The program is interdisciplinary at its core entailing a wide range of faculty expertise in various disciplines. It encompasses a robust pool of invited industry experts, academic scholars and professors contributing to its teaching and learning atmosphere. A diverse student population, successful alumni, good infrastructural facilities, and a range of meaningful campus events further support the Liberal Arts in its growth trajectory throughout the academic year. Both national and international collaborations contribute towards enriching learning outcomes for liberal arts students preparing them for global outreach and interactions.

Liberal Arts, at CHRIST (Deemed to be) University, Bannerghatta Road Campus is dedicated to offering courses and programs that focus on a broad, interdisciplinary approach to education. Liberal Arts encompasses a range of subjects focussed around the themes of environment, social justice, peace-building, gender and intersectionality, history and material culture, psychology, media studies, communication, industry and innovation – all of which is aligned with the idea of sustainability and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The Liberal Arts Program also refers to the concept of globalization in all its forms – including political, biological, digital, cultural, economic, and most importantly – historical. With courses designed to equip its undergraduate students with a plethora of skills like critical thinking, research writing, analysis, performing and visual arts and culture, language, communication, creativity, as well as the know-hows of being industry-ready, the Liberal Arts undergraduate program is – one of its kind – in striving to enable its students to be competent and knowledgeable problem-solvers who will be ready to address contemporary issues in today’s world. The aim of the Liberal Arts is to nurture well-rounded individuals who are socially responsible, intellectually enriched, effective communicators and above all, are compassionate thinkers with a penchant to build a better world. We at Liberal Arts, firmly believe that new ideas come from ‘thinking outside the box’ and developing new perspectives that combine diverse ways of knowing the world. With our enabling environment, empowered leadership and governance structure, we are breaking away from the pattern of conventional educational structures and creating a space for student-centric flexible learning systems which allows students to explore and curate their own visions and aspirations – incorporating creative expressions like music, theater, art and sports into the curriculum as well. Our majors’ program has been designed to offer a selection of stimulating coursework that prioritizes class discussion, featuring dedicated and experienced faculty, and prepares students for an inspiring career.
Within this approach, the Liberal Arts degree allows the students to tailor their own specialisation according to their own unique interests by choosing from amongst seven ‘Interdisciplinary Thematic Tracks’ as listed below: Environment and Sustainability Gender and Minority Studies Urban Studies Healthcare and Wellness Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure Peace and Conflict Studies Communication Studies
The seven thematic tracks allow seven possible trajectories for a student’s career growth after completing the degree including employment opportunities in the fields of research, teaching and learning, policy and practice, development and advocacy, industry and consultancy, arts and creativity. The foundational knowledge acquired in these seven thematic areas forms the basis of a knowledge pool that will enable deeper understanding and engagement without necessarily being bound or limited by one particular discipline in their formative years in the university. The program is interdisciplinary at its core entailing a wide range of faculty expertise in various disciplines. It encompasses a robust pool of invited industry experts, academic scholars and professors contributing to its teaching and learning atmosphere. A diverse student population, successful alumni, good infrastructural facilities, and a range of meaningful campus events further support the Liberal Arts in its growth trajectory throughout the academic year.
