Overview

The origin of the Department of Communication and Journalism can be traced to a donation of Rs.10,000 made by Shri KA Kolhatkar to the University of Pune in 1956 for instituting the “Sandeshkar Kolhaktar Scholarship” for Marathi Journalism. Following this, a two year, part time diploma course in Journalism was introduced in February, 1964. The course eventually became a one-year full time degree course from July 1973. The department became a full-fledged regular department of the university in 1976. Following the international and national trend, nomenclature of the department was changed in 1983 from "Department of Journalism" to "Department of Communication and Journalism". The name of the degree awarded was also changed from B.J. to B.C.J.
