Communication Studies, MA

The MA degree program in communication studies is a cutting-edge degree program designed for students who wish to advance in their existing careers or pursue a new career as a communication professional. With special emphasis on both advocacy and social technologies, students can tailor the program to their personal goals, focusing on topics such as interpersonal, family, organizational, sport, environmental, global and intercultural communication, social media and politics, or technology-mediated interaction. Working closely with faculty, students examine how communication improves the quality of workplaces, personal relationships, digital and face-to-face communities, public dialogues, cross-cultural interactions, and relationships between organizations and those who are influenced by their services, including citizens, customers, patients and fans. They also learn to use media and communication to advocate for themselves and others. More details: https://degrees.apps.asu.edu/masters-phd/major/ASU00/ASCOMSTMA/communication-studies-ma
