A note from the Communications Department: Helping you to choose your courses

Dear Students,

Welcome back to the university and the department! We hope that you all had a relaxing summer and are ready for the new academic year of 2012!  In an attempt to ease one of the challenges you must be facing now, we would like to offer some help with choosing courses for your new semester schedule.  Below, you will see a variety of courses to which we would like to draw your attention to.  You will find production courses, both for video and audio communication, which are major requirements (foundational and advanced) courses for those of you who would like to pursue a career in production or to gain useful production techniques.  You will also find very useful courses in Public relations, such as Public Relations Methods and Corporate Communication, which will offer you all the necessary practical skills and media techniques needed to plan, propose and organize public relations and marketing events and programs.  If you wish to work as a public relations, marketing and advertising professional one day, don’t miss out these opportunities to make yourself a business communication expert!

The University of Nicosia & industry leaders Music Tv (http://www.facebook.com/MusicTVCyprus) have teamed up together this fall, to offer a course like no other. Imagine putting together a music show from scratch, working with a crew alongside  professional equipment & personnel in Mediazone, doing your own research, running your live control room or shooting on location, editing and packaging an entire show; and all of this under the instruction of Dr. Mike Hajimichael. Now sit back and watch your show on Music Tv, and get lost in the rhythm of it all.

Very few students can claim this on their CV, it is definitely worth checking out! Read the course description!

Graduation Success!!!

The Graduation Ceremony 2012 was a great success. The planning started months ago and many people were involved to make the idea reality.

Behind every Graduation ceremony, there are the unsung heroes dressed in black that capture that one moment every graduate will go back to their DVD players and watch. They were the Mediazone crew, which included student Lab Assistants, student volunteers, special community volunteer, and freelancers. A small but dedicated team. There were two graduation ceremonies, one for the University of Nicosia and the second one for Intercollege, as well as the UNIC awards ceremony. We’d meet to break down the ceremonies as if they were missions and rehearse for both of them under the heat of the summer sun, so we’d be sure we were ready to stream live and record each graduate’s big emotional moments with their friends and family at the end, flawlessly no matter what.  This year this was accomplished for the first time in full HD!
