  1. Sir,

    I’m a Journalism (Hons) graduate from University of Delhi and an MA in Media & Cultural Studies from Tata Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai. I had cleared the UGC JRF for Mass Communication and Journalism and I have just given the entrance examination for M Phil in Sociology in JNU. Is my JRF in Mass Communication and Journalism valid for an M Phil in Sociology? Additionally is JNU accepting M Phil applications or JRF positions for its Centre for Media Studies?

    • Dear AK,
      Your UGC-JRF should be valid for the subject / discipline you have appeared in the test. There is a direct admission provision in JNU for JRF holders. Please try to contact the department for more details and schedule of admissions. You can join through this mode. It is better if you continue with Mass Communication and Journalism. If you are interested in Sociology, you can pursue (research) Ph.D in the areas of Sociology and Mass Communication. That could be an excellent study. All the best.
