Prof. Oyetoro O.
HOD, Mass Communication.
The Department of Mass Communication was among the pioneer Departments established at the inception of the Anchor University, Lagos in the 2016/2017 academic session.
The Department started with two academic staff, Mr Charles Okonji and Mr Chidi Ogbuehi with eleven students. At the inception, Mr Charles Okonji served as the Co-ordinator of the Department.
As, 2019/2020 academic session, the students’ enrolment in the Department had grown from 11 to 67, while the staff strength also increased from two to nine – two Professors, three Senior Lecturers, two Lecturers I and two Assistant Lecturers, with Dr. (Barr.) Nsikan Senam, a Senior Lecturer as the Head of Department.
The Department had a full Accreditation (92.4%) from the National Universities Commission in November 2019 for its Bachelor of Science (BSc) Programme. The Department has a state-of-the-art Radio Studio, Television Studio, Editing Suite, Newsroom, Photo Studio, and Public Relations & Advertising (PRAD) Studio, all equipped with up-to-date digital facilities. By the grace of God, the Department is currently well-populated with staff (teaching and non-teaching) and students, and it’s properly positioned for greater productivity.
