RBU Kolkata M.A Multimedia and Mass Communication: Fees 2026, Course Duration, Dates, Eligibility

During 2019, the fee structure of the whole course was around 20000. Semester fees were included in the said amount and the last year there were lab fees which were nominal. Few students can get some government benefit schemes under specified guidelines.

The syllabus is quite good, specially the syllabus of electronic media. But if it is compared with other institutions, it is quite backdated and will be of no use. No facility of internship. And no industrial exposure. Syllabus is mostly theory based which is good for cracking NET, but is of no use in real world. Specialization paper in the syllabus has 4 options. Which are: 1. Cultural Communication 2. Development Communication 3. International Relations 4. Sports Journalism But sadly they can only provide cultural and development communication. In 4th Semester for the OEC paper, the syllabus has two options. That is Media Law and Media Management. But they can only provide Media Law. Teaching faculty strength is very low. Only two permanent teachers are there and 7-8 guest lecturers. The assistant professors are very rude and moody. They are always in unapproachable zone. Such behavior from professors are not expected at all. Current (2020) HOD hardly care about students. He hardly listen to students. He behaves very rude. He is a very busy man, who hardly takes classes. Another assistant professor is very punctual, but a bit rude, yet helpful when approached correctly. But the current (Year 2020) HOD is worst of a kind. The person is too indifferent to handle. Some says the person has a nature of marking students, basically the person holds a vindictive nature. The HOD does not take any responsibility of students if they are facing any problem. The person just walks away. Guest lecturers are very friendly and helpful. Students are supposed to maintain 75% attendance. The teaching style is not upgraded, it is boring. Some faculties do not cover syllabus. If there some practical works that need practice, they just explain that orally. But some teachers do teach very well and help students.

Government scholarships are available for meritorious students. Kanyashree, Swami Vivekananda Scholarship are to name a few. The university has a separate department to assist regarding this. Many students get benefited from this. Though the process is a bit long and complicated to some extent, still many students gets help from this.
