Student Organizations & Activities
The Student Association of the Department of Communication and Technology is a vibrant and creative organization dedicated to connecting, inspiring, and supporting our students. Our mission is to foster collaboration, innovation, and social engagement, creating enjoyable and meaningful academic and social experiences for all members.
The capstone project in the Department of Communication and Technology aims to showcase students' knowledge, skills, and creative abilities in the field of communication. These projects often span a variety of professional directions, including journalism, advertising, public relations, film production, and digital media. Students can choose between research-based academic papers and practice-oriented creative projects, such as advertising campaigns, documentaries, website designs, and more.
The themes are equally diverse, covering topics like media issues, communication effects studies, social media analysis, advertising strategies, news reporting, and cultural research. Students are often required to collaborate with peers from different disciplines, simulating real-world teamwork environments. The final outcomes are typically presented during showcase events at the college or university level, where they receive professional evaluation and feedback.
