Media Museum
We learn from history and from our past. For this very reason Mass Communication faculty has created a Media Museum where audio visual production equipment which was used over last few decades and which has now been phased out is displayed for the students as well as general public to get a glimpse of now obsolete technology. Most of the equipment has been donated by many known film & video professionals, most notably amongst them renowned documentary film maker Mr. Pramod Mathur and his wife.
