Launch a career in media/communication!

Our programs are founded on the idea that to be successful in strategic communications, practitioners must understand why they are making decisions, how to produce media in multiple forms, and the potential impact of publishing that content. Our courses include both foundational theory as well as opportunities for application, and prepare students for professional fields in strategic communication

including advertising, public relations, media planning, brand strategy, digital marketing, social media management and creative production as well as political, health, and public communication with a strategic purpose. Courses are designed to prepare students for an ever-changing media world and allow students to acquire and practice skills in simulated situations and, when applicable, with professional clients.
