About faculty

The Faculty of Media and Communications is focused on managerial functions for promoting and developing creative media industries.

The aim is to train future managers capable of running a variety of media organizations in today’s competitive environments.

The importance of understanding the relation between media and religions or denominations is evident more than ever before. This is due to the prevalence of media and communication and their popularity among people and the role that religion plays in people’s lives. In response to this need, the faculty was established in the University of Religions and Denominations in order to study media-related issues from the perspectives of religions and denominations. In this way, research on media and communications from a religions or denominations standpoint is facilitated, and therefore, related academic studies will also draw more attention.
