Bellisario College of Communications at Penn State provides the opportunities and resources of a large university with the personalized feel and support of a small school. As the largest accredited program of its kind in the nation, students can find a place where they can fit and succeed. Our four departments — Advertising/Public Relations; Film-Video and Media Studies; Journalism; and Telecommun

ications — offer five undergraduate majors. Graduate students may pursue a master’s degree in media studies and a Ph.D. program in mass communications, with several distinct areas of emphasis. Faculty members blend strong academic and professional backgrounds and possess a commitment to excellence in teaching, research and service. Along with nine research centers and special programs within the College, students benefit from on-campus visits from academics and professionals at the top of their fields for endowed lectures and special programs. In addition, a team of advisers in the College provides information and insights for students who have questions ranging from scheduling to selecting a major.
