Bhubaneswar: Central University of Odisha (CUO) in collaboration with Film & Television Institute of India (FTII) on Thursday kick-started the two-week-long workshop on film-based skill courses for students of Scheduled Tribe (ST) category at its Koraput campus.

Professors from FTII Pune will visit the campus to provide specialised training to the students.
Inaugurating the workshop, CUO Vice Chancellor Prof. Chakradhar Tripathy said through these courses, the students will not only be able to learn but also train and empower others. He hoped that the university’s mission of development of local tribals would be fulfilled through the workshop.
