About us

As India’s first global media school, the Jindal School of Journalism and Communication provides a vibrant scholarly setting for the study of journalism, film and new media studies. In today’s increasingly digital, interdisciplinary and interconnected environment, our students acquire the skills and knowledge to question the status quo. We emphasize both theory and practice, enabling our students to take a mindful approach to storytelling.

JSJC emphasizes hands-on multimedia training, a rigorous writing programme and the interdisciplinary social sciences, making us compatible with international media schools. Our students graduate with a greater understanding of the world, with technical skills in radio, film and TV production and find their feet as writers and storytellers.

Message from Tom Goldstein

Founding Dean of Jindal School of Journalism and Communication

I spent several happy years starting in the late 2010s as Founding Dean of the Jindal School of Journalism and Communication (JSJC), teaching, administering and, most of all, learning about a vibrant, dynamic part of the world that I was not familiar with.

Journalism at JSJC

I very much enjoyed my time teaching at Jindal School of Journalism & Communication. The course I taught – an elective class on Investigative Journalism – brought in a mix of students from different disciplines꞉ law, international relations and so on. This enriched our conversations and challenged me to frame the course in a way that would carry a more universal resonance, on the need to hold power to account, and on the importance of factual rigour. At a time when India’s media landscape is under strain, it was good to discover that so many young people are keen to engage with and learn about journalistic practises.

As part of their training to be mass‑media journalists and filmmakers, students receive extensive hands‑on experience in radio, video/television, and film production skills, preparing them to be multi‑skilled storytellers, who are as at home reporting on the ground as they are shooting or recording that reality electronically.
