Undergraduate Program
The communication and media studies department provides its majors with a disciplined understanding of the media, their relationship to culture and society and the process of communication. The program blends theory and practice to prepare students for advanced study or careers in communications. This is accomplished within the context of a rigorous liberal arts education, supplemented by New York City's resources as the media capital of the world.
We would like to congratulate our 2010 scholarship recipients:
- Kavanaugh Scholarship winneR: Gregory Iacurci
- Walsh Scholarship winner: William R. Sanderson
To become a communication and media studies major, a student must demonstrate an earned cumulative GPA of 2.5 or better, or receive written permission from the associate chair or chair of the department.
