Let’s talk communications for a moment. Communications-based careers have exploded over the past 10 years. With a communications concentration from the University of Saint Mary, you’ll get the know-how and the skills necessary to step through the door of a successful career in mass media, journalism, public relations, advertising—or any other field you choose.
USM’s communications concentration accompanies a Bachelor of Arts or Science degree (usually in English, art or business administration). Communications concentrations are designed to make you a marketable commodity—one that employers would be foolish to pass up on. You can specialize in one of three areas of study including:
• Graphic design
• Media writing and editing
• Public relations and promotion.
Real-world experience through field trips, internships and mentorships with area businesses make communications concentration the perfect fit for career-minded students. Recent communications concentration graduates have moved on to fulfilling careers as print journalists, photographers, television producers, public relations coordinators and more.
Paired with a degree program, USM’s Communications Concentrations prepare you for a wide variety of career opportunities including:
• Public Relations
• Mass Communications
