Communication (Master) at Université TÉLUQ in Québec, Canada is a master's degree in Communication Studies programme. The programme is delivered fully online. It carries 45.0 credits. Tuition for international students is CAD 712 per credit (CAD 104 per credit for local students).
This master's program in communication, delivered online by Université TÉLUQ, leads to a Master of Arts and prepares students as researchers, analysts, strategists, or communication managers. The curriculum opens with an introductory course, followed by a small set of mandatory core courses covering communication theory, research methods, and seminar work, with the bulk of remaining credits made up of electives chosen to suit the student's interests. A thesis or major capstone project follows once a substantial portion of coursework is complete, giving students the chance to examine a contemporary communication issue in depth using the theoretical and methodological grounding built earlier in the program. All instruction is offered at a distance. The program suits students who already hold an undergraduate degree in communication, or equivalent professional experience in a related field, and want graduate-level training that combines theory, research methods, and applied analysis of social, technological, and organizational change. It is intended for those seeking research or strategic communication roles rather than a purely practice-based credential.
Requirements
Minimum GPA:3.20 / 4.33
Admission Requirements: Admission follows two pathways. The main route requires a bachelor's degree in communication or equivalent with a cumulative average of at least 3.2 on a 4.3 scale; a lower average between 2.7 and 3.2 may still be admitted if the admissions sub-committee judges the file sufficiently competitive. Alternatively, at least 30 university credits at a 3.2 average combined with relevant management or leadership experience in a communication-related role can qualify a candidate. Applicants must submit a 2–3 page letter of intent covering their interest, relevant experience and a preliminary research project. Written French must be mastered, attested by the Université TÉLUQ written French test or a recognized equivalent, and the programme requires the ability to read scientific articles in English, with no formal English score specified. The sub-committee may require preparatory courses or an admission interview, and students must remain enrolled in the fall and winter trimesters until completion.
Application Details
Application Deadline:TELUQ accepts most applications at any time, but admission tied to a specific trimester follows published windows: Fall 2026 runs 16 February to 30 October 2026, Winter 2027 runs 3 August 2026 to 26 February 2027, and Summer 2027 runs 14 December 2026 to 18 June 2027. Domestic and international applicants share the same windows, except international applicants must submit at least 14 days before a period closes or their file is carried to the next trimester; a few programmes set their own deadlines, listed on each programme's page. Outside these term-specific windows TELUQ describes admission as continuous rather than governed by a single fixed closing date. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
