Media and Communication

Media and Communication is a field that explores the how and why behind every message and the medium through which it is sent to the masses. From broadcasting news to launching online marketing campaigns, the ability to effectively get your point across to your targeted audience is indeed a powerful skill. Popular forms of media include traditional print media, digital media, social media and television. Since Media and Communication is multi-disciplinary in nature, related fields such as journalism, advertising, public relations and broadcasting are commonly incorporated into this exciting field of study. With the society dependent on media to keep up with the latest news and trends happening in Malaysia or around the world, Media and Communication courses allow prospective university students to be exposed to a diversity of mass media formats and communication practices in their curriculum.

• Collaborative internship opportunities with Malaysia’s leading media agencies.
• Opportunity to attend international study trips.
• Fully-equipped facilities and broadcasting studios.
• Industry-relevant curriculum guided by industry-trained professionals.

Through INTI’s partnerships with some of the most prestigious international universities in the world, we aim to provide Media and Communication programmes that will equip students the ability to craft engaging and purposeful messages while effectively disseminating across different media and types of audience.
