Program Overview

The Communication Arts program at UIW uses a unique blend of theory-driven and experienced-based classes where students acquire the knowledge and skills necessary. Communication Arts offers a Bachelor of Arts (BA) and a Master of Arts (MA) as well as an accelerated bachelor’s to master’s degree program. With seemingly infinite career opportunities, graduates work as writers, producers, directors, editors, public relations specialists, videographers, filmmakers, broadcast journalists, advertising specialists, event planners, social media specialists, teachers, web specialists, bilingual journalists, convergent media specialists, among others.

Multimedia Concentration - Creative Publishing Track

Designed for students hoping to pursue careers in media, the Multimedia Concentration offers three tracks through which they may tailor their studies. Each track offers courses that sharpen practical and technical skills while also emphasizing production and media theory. Students will also work and build from a strong ethical foundation and approach to media production and presentation. In their senior year, ABM students begin their first graduate-level courses, earning credits toward their master’s degree as they complete their bachelor’s. In their fifth year, students continue their study with exclusively graduate-level courses in research methods, practicum and the capstone or thesis course, in addition to two electives related to their preferred multimedia specialization track.

In the Creative Publishing Track, students examine and gain hands-on understanding of publishing, from page layout and printing, to convergent media production, to emerging media.
