Journalism

Hello, I am Habibe Ödemiş, 4th year student of Journalism Department at Inonu University, Faculty of Communication. The Faculty of Communication is located on the central campus of Inonu University. The Faculty of Communication aims to educate its students as young communicators of the future. It trains experienced and expert journalists, radio and television correspondents, public relations specialists. We take theoretical and practical courses in the journalism department. Theoretical courses such as Press History, News Gathering and Writing, Interview Techniques, Fiction. In addition, we take Web Design, Desktop Publishing, Graphic Design courses and application courses. We have units of application where we do these applications. We have a newsroom studio, a lab and a radio. By gaining experience here, we reinforce the courses we see theoretically with field experience. I work at the INU News Center. Here, I have the opportunity to apply the course content I learn. You have the opportunity to do internships in your field in the application units in our faculty. After graduation, you have the opportunity to find a job with the training you receive according to your field experience. You can work in the field if you want, or you can improve academically and become an academic. Many factors caused me to choose Inonu University Faculty of Communication. İnonu University is a well-established university, and, having a large campus, social activity areas provided to students, seemed to me as an attractive option. Why Faculty of Communication? I like to research and share it with someone. That's why I chose the Journalism Department of Inonu University. Besides, with the training we have received here, we also have the opportunity to participate in competitions, conferences and seminars held in our field. I received the third prize in the Aydin Dogan Young Communicators Competition of the Turkish Journalists' Association. This award encouraged me to recommend this department to even more students. Thus, those who study this department will improve themselves and at the same time will have the opportunity to find a job in the field thanks to the awards they have received after graduation. After graduating, I have two goals: one is to work in the field and the other is to advance academically. We have the opportunity to work on the field, in the national and local press, and I want to consider them. Also, I plan to achieve this by applying the theoretical training I have received. My advice to students who will prefer our university is this: If you are looking for a university that will improve you in the academic field and offer an active social life with its nature, you should choose Inonu University. If you are looking for a Faculty of Communication that will train you with a master apprentice relationship, then you can choose Inonu University Faculty of Communication. I recommend the Journalism Department of Inonu University Faculty of Communication. It’s a privilege to be a part of İnönü University. We're waiting for all of you.
