The National Universities Commission (NUC) says it has unbundled Mass Communication into seven separate degree programmes to meet present
demand.
The Commission also said that degree programmes in Agriculture, Architecture and Creative Art have also been split into different ones, with the changes expected to take effect in this year in all universities
in the country.
NUC’s Executive Secretary, Prof. Abubakar Rasheed, who made this known to newsmen in Abuja, said Mass Communication has been unbundled into
Media Studies, Public Relation Studies, Cinematography, among others.
He said the present Agriculture degree programme in the universities is now broken into Forestry, Soil Science, Plant Science and others.
