AA/AS in Communication and Media Studies

The Communication Associate of Arts teaches the concepts and the everyday use of effective communication, which employers in any industry value. Students work on talking one-to-one, speaking within groups and addressing audiences, growing more confident and flexible along the way. By practicing how to listen, speak, write and reason carefully, learners gain abilities that apply to many jobs. The degree transfers to universities, and doing the early coursework at Northeast can shrink the cost of a bachelor's degree. Related work includes media, education, consulting, advertising, public relations, commerce and nonprofits. Advisors recommend using the Transfer Guide when planning courses. Interested applicants can ask the college for more details, arrange a visit to the campus, or begin an application directly through its website.
