And you'll be in an environment that encourages close collaboration, and in which you receive the focal attention of the faculty. Whether your goal advancing in your current career with an advanced degree or to continue on to a Ph.D. program; whether you are an international or domestic student; our graduate program will help optimize your future success.

Our Master of Arts (MA) degree in Communication Management is specifically targeted at professionals in communication-related fields and students seeking an advanced degree in communication. As a student in our program, you’ll explore practical and theoretical applications in a variety of challenging real-world communication contexts.
