Program details
Overview
This Master of Professional Communication program provides advanced theoretical knowledge and practical skills in organizational communication. Required core coursework covers the history and theory of professional communication, research methods, an internship placement, communication in virtual organizations, and visual communication. Students choose between a Major Research Paper option or an additional set of elective courses in place of the research paper. Electives span topics such as crisis communication, media relations, legal issues in communication, proposal writing, and visual rhetoric. The program emphasizes communication's role in organizational productivity, sustainability, and professional practice, combining academic grounding with applied, workplace-relevant skills through its internship component. Graduates are prepared for advanced communication roles in corporate, non-profit, government, or consulting settings. The program suits students seeking graduate-level, practice-oriented training in organizational and professional communication, rather than a research-focused communication studies degree.
Requirements
Admission Requirements: Admission requires a four-year undergraduate (or equivalent) bachelor's degree, with a minimum grade average of B/3.0 (on a 4.33 scale) in the last two years of study; some graduate programs require a higher minimum average, so applicants should confirm current program-specific requirements before applying. English language proficiency (where required) must meet the general graduate minimum: IELTS Academic 7.0, TOEFL iBT 93, CAEL 70, PTE Academic 63, or Duolingo English Test 130.
