About IGNOU MAJEM – M.A in Journalism and Electronic Media

IGNOU MAJEM Assignments Overview

In the IGNOU system, assignments are a vital part of the continuous evaluation process. For the M.A in Journalism and Electronic Media, these assignments carry a significant 30% weightage toward your final grade or division. This means that your performance in these home-based tasks directly impacts your overall percentage. Students must score at least the minimum passing marks in these Tutor Marked Assignments (TMA) to be declared successful in a particular course. Generally, there is one comprehensive assignment for every theory course in the MAJEM curriculum.

The validity of assignments depends on your admission cycle. If you are enrolled in the January session of 2026, you must follow the deadlines meant for the December Term End Exam. For those in the July session of 2026, the June TEE deadlines apply. It is important to note that assignment questions change every year. You must always solve the latest questions available on the official website. If a student fails to submit their work within the stipulated timeframe, they will not receive their hall ticket and must submit fresh assignments in the next academic cycle.

University guidelines strictly mandate that all assignments must be handwritten by the student. Printed or typed responses are generally rejected by the study centres. Writing by hand ensures that the student has actually read the material and processed the information. Plagiarism, which involves copying directly from textbooks or from other students’ work, is treated as a serious offense. If the evaluator finds that your answers are not original, your marks may be withheld. Your Study Centre coordinator is responsible for evaluating these scripts and uploading the marks to the official portal.

How to Submit IGNOU MAJEM Assignments

The submission process starts with writing your answers clearly. Use A4 size ruled or plain paper and write on only one side if possible for better readability. Every assignment must have a proper cover page. This cover page should include your full name, enrollment number, M.A in Journalism and Electronic Media programme code, course code, and your assigned Study Centre code. Once all answers are written, arrange the sheets in the correct sequence according to the question paper.

Depending on the instructions from your Regional Centre, you may need to submit your work physically or through an online link. For physical submission, visit your Study Centre and hand over the files to the coordinator. Do not forget to collect a submission receipt, as this is your only proof of submission. If your Regional Centre allows online submission for 2026, you will need to scan your handwritten pages and upload them as a PDF. Marks usually take 2-4 months to reflect on the official grade card portal.

Deadlines are very strict in IGNOU. For the June TEE 2026, the deadline is typically March 31st or April 30th. For the December TEE 2026, students must usually submit by September 30th or October 31st. These dates are often extended by the university, but it is always safer to submit early to avoid the last-minute rush at the Study Centres. Keep a photocopy or a scanned backup of your work before you submit it anywhere.
