Communication

A memo to your staff. An article for New Yorker. A TV ad script for a corporate client. All these pieces require clear, effective, persuasive writing skills. A B.A. in communication from Saint Vincent College will give you the tools to create impressive work.  

With a concentration in Media Studies, you will graduate with a portfolio of productions you recorded, edited and produced in our professional video and audio editing suites. Concentrate in Public Relations and Advertising, and gain the skills and techniques necessary to develop and execute top-notch PR and ad campaigns. With practical experience like this, you'll be the front-runner for your first job!
