Additional Program Info
The mass communications and design major prepares students for careers in areas such as graphic design, public relations, journalism (print, broadcast, and electronic), video and audio production, still photography, advertising, writing for print and electronic media, and documentary film-making. The curriculum is specifically designed to help future media professionals develop the multiple skills required in a rapidly evolving and convergent media environment.
Students have the option to complete the B.A. in Mass Communications and Design prior to entering the entry-level Doctor of Physical Therapy program.
Sport communication is a growing segment within the communications field, as it involves the robust integration of multiple media products and platforms. Students who select the new specialization will gain instruction and experience in journalism, broadcasting, marketing, public relations, graphic design and electronic and social media in the context of sport media.
In this media culture with its continuous flow of messages across platforms and delivery systems, media skills are marketable-and often necessary for many careers. The Mass Communications and Design minor enables students to study graphic design, public relations, journalism (print, broadcast, and electronic), video and audio production, and still photography to supplement study in all majors, particularly English, Business, Marketing, and Sports Management.

Facilities
The Misericordia University Department of Mass Communications and Design has some of the best digital production learning facilities in the region.
Students shoot both still photography and videography using the latest equipment—and they edit and perform post production using professional-level software programs, including Final Cut Pro and Express, Avid Media Composer, Photo Mechanic, and the Adobe Creative Suite.
The Highlander, the University's award-winning student newspaper, provides Mac work stations loaded with the Adobe Creative Suite for writing, editing and layout.
Students are able to work on their media projects—for class assignments and student media—at any time in our Digital Production Lab, where each work station is loaded with every software program they need. The lab also enables students to get hand-on instruction during class time.
Be sure to visit our facilities when you tour Misericordia University. The Media Center is located in the Munson Learning Center in the lower level of the McAuley Walsh building. The Mac lab is on the mezzanine of Munson. The student-run CGR Cougar Radio studio and The Highlander/Student Publications offices are located in the Bank's Student Life Center.
