MIC, AIBD and HELP joined hands to create a new program in which the priority would be given to relevant subjects so that participants would be able to understand the implications and intricacies of communication and the media and be able to assume a practical managerial role in the different realms of professional communication.

Aims and objectives

The MBA degree in Media and Communication is issued by the International American University based in California, USA or Dutch Delta University based in Amsterdam and is offered to those candidates wishing to acquire professional and practical skills in the media and other communication-oriented fields. Our aim is to enable the participants to be immediately operative. In this regard, we have developed a concept that focuses on a cohesive cluster of interlinked courses.
At the end of this program the participants should be able:
- to examine communication and media situations,
- to analyze relevant issues,
- to find appropriate solutions for these issues
- to work in a professional communication company such as radio,
TV, newspapers, etc.
- to take charge of the communication activities of a business corporation or organization.

Tuition Fees
