An international conference on “Media and Communication Studies in the Digital Age” has opened in Baku, marking the 150th anniversary of the Azerbaijani National Press.
The international conference titled “Media and Communication Studies in the Digital Age” has officially commenced in Baku, celebrating the 150th anniversary of the Azerbaijani National Press. The event is co-organized by Baku State University (BSU) and Üsküdar University of Türkiye, with support from the Media Development Agency, the Audiovisual Council, and the Press Council.

The first day includes 48 presentations across seven thematic panels such as “Media and Society in the Digital Age,” “AI, Media and Society,” “Advertising and Marketing in the Digital Age,” “Journalism History,” and “Digital Transformation and Media.”
A total of around 300 articles and 100 theses were submitted to the conference, which features 19 in-person and approximately 24 online panel sessions.
In addition, BSU’s Faculty of Journalism will inaugurate the “National Press History Auditorium” and launch a special edition of the “Baku University” newspaper and a new academic journal titled “Media Problems” in honor of the national press milestone.
