One of the country's top-ranked graduate schools, Quinnipiac University's Graduate School of Communications in Connecticut offers three vigorous Master of Science programs: Interactive Communications, Journalism, and Public Relations

The Master of Science in Journalism prepares students for professional careers as reporters, editors and producers in broadcast, print and online media. Through systematic training in both beginning and advanced reportorial practices and technologies, students learn how to write news, shoot and edit video, create audio reports and assemble multimedia stories.

Our alumni are pursing careers as reporters and producers in many major broadcast television markets, for the Associated Press, for ESPN and Fox News Channel, and for numerous online news sites, newspapers and magazines including patch.com. The journalism program welcomes qualified students who do not have journalism experience and encourages prospective students with some experience who wish to upgrade or polish existing skills to apply and ultimately join our network of highly successful alumni.

The highly regarded 36-credit Master of Science in Journalism program focuses not just on the traditional world of reporters, editors, and producers that are always needed for newspapers, broadcasting, radio, and magazines, but also on careers for online newspapers and other interactive delivery systems in the fast-paced world of the Internet.

All journalism graduate students have access to the school’s news technology production facilities within the Ed McMahon Communications Center. The center features state-of-the-art equipment including high-definition video production, digital radio and sound production and digital editing. Most classes are held at the center, giving students first-hand, in-class experience with technology that they will encounter as professionals.
