Faculty Development Programme to Support Research and Innovation in Media Institutions in India and United Kingdom. Media education specifically require faculty that have both practical and theoretical knowledge of subjects. Media institutes struggle to cope with this challenge to update their students with hands-on knowledge of the field while providing theoretical grounding. Given this context, an assessment of training needs of Faculty teaching journalism or other related courses was conducted as part of the UKIERI funded project titled “Faculty Development Programme–to support Research and innovation in media institutions in India and the United Kingdom”. This project envisions faculty development as the mode to develop quality standards and standardizations in this sector.
