Program details

Overview

The Master of Communication Studies builds on the University of Guyana's undergraduate communication programme, admitting both its own graduates and holders of other suitable bachelor's degrees who carry a grade point average of at least 2.7 on a four-point scale. Mature applicants with seven or more years of professional experience in communication or a related discipline can also enter without the standard degree-plus-GPA combination, and students transferring in from elsewhere are evaluated individually against the same minimum criteria, with exemptions granted where their prior study already meets a requirement. The two-year programme opens with modules on persuasion and ethics, narrative communication and an elective drawn from social-change, strategic or visual communication, continuing in the second year into proposal development, research methods, social-media studies and a supervised internship, before concluding with electives chosen from across the university's graduate offerings.

Requirements

Minimum GPA: 2.70 / 4.0
Admission Requirements: Needs a Degree in Communication Studies from the University of Guyana or an equivalent from a recognised institution with at least a 2.7 GPA (Credit) on a 4.0 scale; or any other bachelor's degree deemed suitable with the same 2.7/4.0 minimum. Mature applicants (21+) with at least 7 years' experience and a degree in Communication or a related discipline may also apply. Transfer students meeting any of the above criteria are evaluated individually, with exemptions granted where applicable.
