Communications - Ithaca College

Communications from Ithaca College is a Campus Master Media Studies degree that prepares you for a Communications career. Organizations are defined by their ability to communicate and learn. Their identities are shaped by the relationships that are developed among employees and other key stakeholders. Their services, products, and expertise have value only when those strengths are communicated successfully. And their achievements are a direct consequence of how effectively they gain and share knowledge. Our graduates understand these communication and learning needs -- and have mastered them. As a graduate student in communications, you'll receive special attention in an intimate community of thoughtful colleagues. The program is personalized: only about 15-20 new students enter the program each year. Working closely with our faculty, you'll develop a program that builds on your specific skills and interests. Through coursework you'll gain expertise in using communication technology to foster organizational success, designing print materials, and developing and leading workshops.
