Hi,

I Am
 

Naheda Makhadmeh

Summary

With over a decade of experience in media education and research, I am proud to have dedicated my career to shaping the next generation of journalists and digital media specialists as an associate professor at Yarmouk University. My journey in academia has been deeply fulfilling, from serving as Vice Dean of the College of Mass Communication to lecturing in public relations and advising graduate students. These roles have allowed me to combine my passion for academic leadership with the rewarding experience of hands-on teaching.

I earned my Ph.D. in Media and Information Studies from Michigan State University, complementing two master’s degrees in Mass Communication and Political Science. My academic interests are rooted in digital journalism, media psychology, and the societal impact of journalism ethics. Over the years, I have contributed to scholarly journals and conferences, co-authoring research on topics like social media’s role in public relations and the media framing of Middle Eastern politics.

Outside of teaching and research, I enjoy engaging with the global academic community as a reviewer for international journals and a speaker at forums focusing on Arab media and journalism. Receiving awards such as the Stone-Boyd Award from Michigan State University motivates me to continue advancing media literacy and ethical journalism practices, particularly in Jordan and the broader region.

For me, academia isn’t just about research and teaching—it’s about making a lasting impact on the media landscape and empowering future professionals to navigate this dynamic field with integrity and purpose.
