OUR HISTORY
The College of Mass Communication was established from the nucleus of the Journalism Department of the College of Arts / University of Baghdad in 2002. At the beginning of its establishment, the college included only two academic departments: the Department of Journalism and the Department of Radio and Television Journalism, in addition to divisions and fixed administrative units. In 2005, a new scientific department, the Department of Public Relations, was created. The Faculty of Information was a department of the Faculty of Arts, established in 1964. It stopped for years, then reopened for the academic year (1974-1975) under the name of the Information Department. It included two branches (the Press Branch and the Radio and Television Journalism Branch).
The college aims to prepare specialists in the field of media work who are qualified to work in modern media and in the fields of journalism, radio, television, public relations and advertising by providing them with scientific knowledge, practical experience and technical skills.
