About the programme
This faculty interview explores why you want to study mass communication and how you think about news, audiences and responsible media work. The panel is looking for curiosity, clear expression, sound judgement and a willingness to verify information rather than simply repeat it.
How to prepare
- Follow several current Nigerian stories and compare how different outlets report them.
- Practise explaining why you chose mass communication rather than only saying that you enjoy speaking.
- Review the basic differences between journalism, broadcasting, public relations and advertising.
- Think through how you would check a claim, contact sources and separate fact from opinion.
- Check the institution's official site for its current admission and interview instructions.
Common mistakes
- Describing mass communication as only a route to appearing on television.
- Repeating a social media claim without explaining how you would verify it.
- Ignoring privacy and accuracy when discussing a dramatic story.
