Mediacom Studio

The Mediacom Studio is hosted at the University of Mauritius. It was created by Mrs Christina Chan-Meetoo, Senior Lecturer in Media and Communication, in 2008. This was made possible thanks to initial funding from the UNESCO agency IPDC.

The facility is designed to provide training to Journalism and Communication students for various modules requiring competencies in the creation of audio, video and multimedia content.

Most videos which are uploaded in this channel have been made by students as part of their assignments and projects. By definition, students are learning by doing and they are thus prone to mistakes. Showcasing of videos is done to provide motivation for real, practical learning to take place.

Other videos have been made for the University administration as a side activity as and when possible. 

The Mediacom Studio's main mandate is thus primarily pedagogical.
