It’s a pleasure to welcome you to SSCMS for pursuing higher education in M.S Communication and M.Sc. in Electronic Media. SSES became one of the premier educational centers in the country with the support and blessings of many well-wishers and friends. A single school establishment in the late 1950s has now grown into nearly 100 schools and professional colleges ranging from Medical, Dental, Nursing, Engineering, Management school, and SSCMS which is exclusively for Media studies.

Media education is all about practice with the right amount of theoretical knowledge. At SSCMS you will get a chance to home your skills using the labs and studios. The much needed theoretical foundation will also be given. The library is well stocked with media books, English and regional newspapers and magazines. State of the art of TV Studio has become a common feature in media schools. What sets the SSCMS TV studio apart is the fact that it is also a full-fledged production house. You will also have the opportunity to take part in the numerous ongoing production activities.
