Meaningful Visit to TRT News During Accreditation Process
Our Faculty's Public Relations and Advertising Department continues to maintain contact with external stakeholders in the media sector as part of the accreditation process. In this context, Department Head Assoc. Prof. Dr. Enes Bal paid a visit to the Ankara campus of the Turkish Radio and Television Corporation (TRT).
During the meeting with TRT News Program Director Dr. Emrah Alparslan Konukman, the opportunities available to students in their fields of study, internship and employment opportunities, and the suitability of academic programs to sectoral needs were discussed. In addition, mutual views were exchanged on how university-sector cooperation could be made more effective in line with current developments in the media field. During the visit, evaluations were made regarding increasing joint efforts to enhance students' professional skills and aligning educational content more closely with sectoral expectations.
