Guided by its core values, the Department of Communication Arts and Sciences customizes every academic program to meet individual graduate students' needs. While maintaining certain essential requirements, graduate students collaborate with their advisory committees to design study plans that optimally equip them for academic and professional success. In most cases, the department's criteria for M.A. and Ph.D. degrees align with the Graduate School's standards. Departmental policies never override Graduate School regulations. Every graduate student bears responsibility for verifying they fulfill all Graduate School prerequisites.
