Dean's Message

It is with great pride and excitement, I extend a heartfelt welcome to the Faculty of Communication & Business Studies (FCBS), the pioneer academic faculty of the Trincomalee Campus, Eastern University, Sri Lanka established in 2001. As a vibrant and dynamic faculty accommodating over 1,500 undergraduate students, FCBS is home to three key departments: The Department of Business and Management Studies, the Department of Languages & Communication Studies, and the Department of Information Technology.

Our faculty offers a unique academic journey through the disciplines of Management, Languages, Communication, and information technology-foundational areas of study that are at the heart of contemporary knowledge and innovation. Students are encouraged to explore these fields not only to acquire academic knowledge, but also to cultivate critical thinking, creativity, and the practical skills necessary for success in an increasingly complex world.

At the core of our success is a team of dedicated academic, administrative and non-academic staff. I am privileged to work along a passionate group of academics who have chosen teaching as their true calling. Their expertise, motivation, and commitment are instrumental in shaping the minds and futures of our students. These professionals bring diverse experiences and a shared passion for mentoring young minds, helping students unlock their full potential and prepare for meaningful careers and lifelong learning.

Students are exposed to a wide range of learning experiences including researches, projects, internships, and real-world engagement. These experiences ensure that our graduates are well-prepared to assume leadership roles and drive innovation across multiple sectors, including business, management, languages, media, and technology.

Our alumni are a source of immense pride and inspiration. They have gone on to make significant contributions across industries and communities, serving as ambassadors of the values and excellence fostered at FCBS. Their achievements affirm the strength of our academic programs and the transformative impact of the education we offer.

I invite you to discover all that our faculty has to offer a vibrant community where ideas flourish and possibilities abound. Let us move forward together, meeting challenges and embracing opportunities with courage, resilience, and optimism. As we look ahead to the future with hope and determination, let us do so with humility, integrity, and a steadfast commitment to the pursuit of knowledge.

Together, let us strive for excellence.
