The National Universities Commission (NUC) says it has not abolished the study of Mass Communication in Nigerian universities, saying that the course has just been unbundled into seven other degree programmes. Mr Ibrahim Yakasai, the NUC Director of Corporate Affairs disclosed this on Friday in Abuja while clarifying the commission’s position on some online reports claiming that the NUC had phased out Mass Communication. According to him, the NUC has only unbundled Mass Communication due to increasing demands from students. “Mass communication is still very much available as a degree programme. “The demands of those who go for mass communication is high and NUC had to look into them.
