Comunicazione Professionale (M.A.)

The master’s program in Professional Communication serves students seeking to advance their education beyond an undergraduate degree. The master’s program can help you achieve your goals, whether you are looking to enhance your career in broadcasting, business, education, new media, or social services; or if you are preparing to enter a Ph.D. program.

Our program emphasizes three areas of specialization:

• Interpersonal and Organizational Communication Theory
• Media Criticism, History, and Theory
• Rhetorical Criticism and Theory

The program meets the needs of students who work full time. During fall and spring, most graduate courses are scheduled once a week in the evening. During summer, an additional course is offered. Students can take one class a semester, or go full-time and complete the program in less than two years.
