Mass Communication
The philosophy of Mountain Top University’s (MTU) Mass Communication programme is to produce graduates who are academically and professionally empowered with the competencies required to discharge their duties to society. Graduates will be morally and spiritually strengthened to excel in their families and the society at large.
