Communication students at Mississippi College work to become effective communicators with their words, skills, and lives. Students dive deep into the foundations of communication theory and develop practical skills through extensive application.
Communication students learn inside and outside the classroom.
Experienced professors dedicated to student learning and well-being guide students through their college education and provide helpful personal contacts for internships and other hands-on opportunities, on and off campus.
Internships provide Communication majors with valuable work-environment experience in media companies, government and non-profit agencies, public relations firms, and journalistic organizations.
Studio facilities provide students with the opportunity to produce media using industry-standard video recording and editing equipment while serving the campus by producing programs and reports that inform and entertain.
Theater students rehearse and perform in the intimacy of Aven Little Theater, a 100-seat black box space; Swor Auditorium, MC’s central venue for more extensive theatrical projects; and Jennings Courtyard, location of the annual Shakespeare Festival.
Students with outstanding academic records at Mississippi College are invited to join Lambda Pi Eta, the Communication honor society.
Co-curricular activities open to all Communication students include:
