Master of Science in Communication Program

MSC is a comprehensive management and leadership program that provides a broad-based foundation of principles that can successfully be applied to many professional fields. The Program is designed for professionals from a wide variety of undergraduate majors, job functions and experience levels — drawing emerging talent and senior level managers alike from for-profit, non-profit and government sectors.

Students enrolled in MSC meet their career goals, improve their competitive edge, obtain a masters degree and are able to work full-time throughout the four-quarter program as classes are offered during one full day of instruction each week on alternating Fridays and Saturdays.

MSC is focused on communication and leadership skills that go beyond traditional management curricula to train students in the practical, real-world applications required to meet the demands of today’s complex world. The curriculum offers core courses basic to the discipline as well as focused areas of concentration related to communication technologies and strategic organizational communication.

I’ve realized that just because I can talk, doesn’t mean I can communicate effectively. It’s a skill to be honed, and learned. So I looked around and I found that Northwestern has the best program.
