Explore Communications at Immaculata University

In a world where information flows at the speed of light and connections are made through words and visuals, a degree in communications is your passport to understanding, 影响, and shaping the way we interact and share ideas. Since nearly every job opening across the nation requires good oral and written communication skills, this ubiquitous major delves into exciting careers that transcend oral and written skills.

As a communication major, you will develop theoretical and practical skills, participate in two valuable internships, and interact with professionals in the field.

"I was set up for success upon graduation. The Communication degree program required the completion of two internships, which pushed me to start thinking seriously about life after graduation. The support and encouragement I received from my advisor gave me the confidence to apply for numerous internships during my senior year. I landed an internship with QVC’s email marketing team during my final semester, which I was able to turn into a full time e-commerce associate position once graduating. My classes at IU covered a wide range of topics, which gave me the knowledge that has allowed me to excel in my career. From professional writing and marketing ethics to cross-cultural business studies and digital media courses, I felt more than prepared to enter a corporate work setting and succeed."
