Re: Pune University MJMC Syllabus
The syllabus of Master of Journalism and Mass Communication (MJMC) of University of Pune is as follows: MJMC (Sem. I) 101: Language Skills for Media (Lectures: 30) Total Marks: 50 ( Internal Assessment: 10, sem-end examination: 40) Language is the basic tool a media person has to use. Students from diverse backgrounds enroll for this course and not all of them have the necessary language skills. This paper is designed to help students to look at language more consciously and teach them to use it with more responsibility. The paper aims to improve students' written, spoken and aural language skills. This paper should be run as an intensive training programme in the first semester to help students perform better in language-oriented subjects like News Reporting, Editing and Feature Writing etc. The syllabus given below, is for both Marathi and English, however separate lectures have to be scheduled for Marathi and English. • Some may colleges may offer MJMC course in both the languages, giving students the choice to write their assignments in either of the two languages. Therefore students of one language have to attend lectures for the other language. Unit 1- Vocabulary: Active and passive vocabulary, Importance of short & plain words, Choosing the right/precise word from words having similar meanings, Ways of expanding one's active vocabulary, Levels of vocabulary usage: formal & informal, spoken & written.
