The MA program is grounded in research: participants complete a mix of required and elective courses (4 for thesis track, 6 for research paper). They then develop a research proposal in partnership with a Communication Department faculty member. This proposal undergoes review by faculty evaluators before students commence their thesis work (involving data collection, analysis, interpretation, and reporting findings). Serving as a pathway to PhD studies, this MA offers a distinctive chance to cultivate specialized knowledge through original research. Program participants enhance their competencies in areas like methodological approaches, data analysis and interpretation, and effective research communication.
