Communication (MA)

Technological advances present an exciting opportunity for a new type of communication professional that can effectively convey messages in a globalized society. The Master of Arts in Communication seeks to prepare students with the knowledge and skills that are most relevant to a wide variety of professions and organizations. Instead of focusing on particular technological tools, students will become self-directed learners that are fluent in the language of technology, thereby preparing them for the next major innovation—and, the one after that. In this way, the M.A. in Communication positions one as a "value add" to a range of employers within and outside of the traditional communication field. Graduates of the degree program could potentially pursue careers in public relations, business, writing, journalism, marketing, health, entertainment, politics, education, and many other fields.
