The Jack J. Valenti School of Communication at the University of Houston offers three Master鈥檚 degrees directed toward professional success in both academic and non-academic careers. The goal of the program is to produce graduate students who are able to move effectively into professional media positions, advance their current careers, teach in junior colleges or high schools, or enter into top doctoral programs.
To date, our school has placed graduates into top-ranked Ph.D. programs as well as into non-academic positions in both public and private institutions. Regardless of the career goal, the graduate program broadens each student鈥檚 communication expertise through courses that improve conceptual, applied, and research skills - all of which are critical for successful careers in today鈥檚 information-oriented and changing global society.
The Master in Mass Communication Studies focuses on the development of modern media systems and their impact on society, and examines ways in which the media contribute and respond to political, social and economic issues.
