Mass Communication Department

An Introductory Account

The Media Department at Kuwait University began offering courses in the 1992/1993 academic year with two specializations: Journalism and Radio & Television. In 2005, a new specialization, Public Relations & Advertising, was introduced to align with advancements in media and institutional communication.

As the department continuously evolves to meet the demands of the national and regional job market, and in response to the rapid changes in modern media and social communication, the graduation curriculum was revised in 2018 and officially approved for the 2023-2024 academic year.
