The question students always have is "What can I do with a degree in Mass Communications?" The answer is "Just about anything!"

Student Opportunities and Experience

Mass Communications is more than just a department. It is a community of faculty, staff and students who share a passion for all things media, storytelling, and people. Our student-run media outlets, The Panther newspaper and website, Panther Radio, and Panther Television, allow students opportunities and experiences in order to learn their craft. Digital Media students produce news, sports, films, and television programs. Journalism students report news, sports, and features for The Panther newspaper and website. Public Relations students develop advertising and public relations campaigns for local business clients and non-profit organizations. Our web design and social media courses teach students not only how to use media but how to use it effectively. In addition, our Internship and Practicum programs provide students with hands-on, real-world opportunities to work with mentors and employers in the media industries.

Students learn the theory and practice of effective communication through course assignments with an emphasis on critical and analytical thought. The Department of Mass Communications is located in the Grace Thomas Kennedy Building. The department houses a television studio and control room, an audio lab, a video editing suite, a media production computer lab, and student-run, online television, radio, and newspaper outlets.

The world needs visionaries. Those who are able to imagine what’s possible and chart a course to get there.
