Spotlight: Shahnaz Bashir

By contributor Katherine Fillion In addition to our team of full-time faculty and staff, the Comm Department is home to a cohort of incredibly bright PhD students. One of these students is Shahnaz Bashir, who comes to us from the University of Kashmir in India where he obtained his Masters with Rank 1: University Gold Medal and Award of Merit in Mass Communication and Journalism. Alongside the pursuit of his Masters, Shahnaz taught classes on narrative journalism and conflict reporting.

Shahnaz joined us on our campus in January of 2021 after experiencing a unique first semester as both a doctoral student and teaching associate. He studied remotely during the fall of 2020, teaching and attending UMass lectures from across the globe. With a laugh, he mentioned that he often had to wake up in the middle of the night to join his live Zoom courses due to the near 11- hour time difference between Amherst and Kashmir.

Once in Amherst, Shahnaz continued to work towards his academic goals while simultaneously teaching courses like COMM375, Writing as Communication — the junior year writing requirement. When asked about the differences between teaching at UMass Amherst and the University of Kashmir, he mentioned how he quickly discovered that optimal teaching methodologies vary across continents, and should be adjusted to suit each unique group of students. He also explained that becoming acquainted with our local area helped him to incorporate colloquial examples into his teaching and engage students even more than before.

Engaging students is a major element of Shahnaz’s teaching philosophy. He believes that a maternal approach to teaching aids in forging connections that extend beyond a student’s time in higher ed. He points out that when this element is lacking, learning can feel robotic, noting that “[a student’s] life is not restricted to that classroom. They’re bringing with themselves a lot of complicated world, and also taking things into the complicated world when they walk out of the room. You have to take all of that into consideration to understand each student according to their needs. Otherwise it becomes like a machine, a factory where students come and go.” Shahnaz put this wisdom into action while teaching in Kashmir by encouraging connection beyond the classroom. He created a large WhatsApp group where students across numerous graduating classes could post and network. Although some of these students don’t even know each other, the group has proven to be an effective way to bridge the gap between academic and personal relationships.

Outside of academia, Shahnaz is the successful writer of two award-winning fiction books,  The Half Mother  (Hachette, 2014) and  Scattered Souls  (HarperCollins, 2016). The former was the first book from Kashmir to be translated into several foreign languages. He has also been published in the ever-prominent  Time Magazine  and has another novel on the horizon titled  The Disease .

Moving forward at UMass, Shahnaz hopes to design a course on images — particularly, AI-generated “deep fakes” — tentatively titled, “Pixelated Lies: Decoding Digital Deceit.” The course will include visual analysis and discussion of what it means to be surrounded by fake images that have the potential to deceive, confuse, and frustrate the public. With AI-generated images slowly taking over the internet, it is essential for people to learn techniques to decipher the real from the artificial, and begin to consider the societal and legal challenges posed by such visual disinformation.

Meet Indian genius who completed class 10th at age 8, then became India’s youngest PhD holder at…

I ndia, a land known for its rich cultural heritage and diverse talents, has been a place for exceptional child prodigies who have astounded the world with their remarkable achievements. One such genius is Naina Jaiswal who crowns the title of being the youngest female PhD holder in India. However, her talents are not only limited to academics as she is also a table tennis champion at an international level. 

Naina’s exceptional academic strength has been evident since her early childhood days. Naina was ahead of her peers as she cleared her Class 10th board exams at age 8. She completed her school education by the age of 10. 

Later, she pursued her bachelor’s degree in mass communication and journalism and completed her graduation when she was just 13 years old.

From that moment, Naina was unstoppable and reaching feats that hardly someone in their lives might have achieved. At the tender age of 15, Naina remarkably established herself as Asia's youngest postgraduate by securing a master's degree in Political Science from Osmania University in Hyderabad. Additionally, she also holds a law degree.

She then embarked on her PhD journey at the age of 17. She managed to seize the title of India's youngest PhD holder when she was just 22. Her research shed light on the contribution of microfinance in women's empowerment.

Shedding light upon her sporting career, Naina is also a table tennis player who is a national and South Asian champion. She has earned many medals on the domestic and international levels. Her parents made the decision to homeschool her, so that she could strike a balance between playing sports and ensuring she excelled academically.
