Media & Journo Day at Sohar University

Sohar University Students' Affairs with the cooperation of the Department of Journalism, Communication & Media Studies organised its first Media & Journo Open Day from 14 to 15 of May this year.

The schedule of this first Media & Journo symposium is varied and comprises many activities that range from contests, talk shows, open discussions and sports activities together with different exhibitions.

Among the contests that attracted far much broader audience and participants likewise was the Radio Presenter Contest, conducted and organised by Dr Belgacem Mehdaoui with the assistance of Ahud AlMaqbali, a journalism student at SU. This consisted of a live presentation of a programme, a quiz on general knowledge as well as voice, presentation and studio presence of the participants.

Dr Dhia, Professor at Sohar University, also presented a lecture on "Writing News For Print Press". This was another angle from which Journo students can explore other facets of news writing in Arabic.

The Closing ceremony was animated by Mr Ahmed Al Kaabi for a talk with Sports Commentater Emirati Adnan Hamad.

It is worth noting that the closing ceremony ended late in the evening Wednesday with major participants given souvenirs gifts.
