Media and Communication

Media and communication is a continuously growing and exciting field that includes social media, public relations, journalism, and media production. Students develop skills in media creation, media analysis, and professional communication that can be applied in a broad range of careers. Students learn digital and visual storytelling, television production, scriptwriting, feature writing, editing, and much more. Majors graduate with a diverse and vast background in the field along with the ability to utilize the software and new media technologies used daily in the industry

Professors bring decades of industry and intellectual expertise to the classroom and mentor students in developing their own professional styles. A degree in Media & Communication prepares students for civic engagement in a media dominant world and equips them with the tools needed to become media savvy professionals.

Internships:

Beyond what students learn in the classroom, Media & Communication majors at CHC are also challenged to take that information and impart it into real world experience. All majors are required to complete at least one internship, though many go on to complete a second for personal benefit. Students find these real-world experiences invaluable to their professional growth and networks. Our students have completed highly rewarding internships at 6ABC News, Al Día News, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Comcast SportsNet, ESPN Films, Philadelphia Style Magazine, Walt Disney World, and WHYY just to name a few.
