Cassidy Duhigg MCM’22, COM’21 transferred to Rutgers her sophomore year, excited because, as she said, “from the 120+ undergrad majors to the dozens of engaging student clubs, Rutgers truly had everything I wanted.” What she wasn’t sure of, however, was her major.
Ashante Patterson MCM’20, SAS’18, a communications and marketing manager with the Mount Sinai Health System, is intent on raising awareness of health awareness that affects communities of color.
Both undergraduate and graduate students expanded their academic knowledge, field experience, and understanding of European cultures this past spring and summer by taking study abroad classes taught by SC&I faculty through Rutgers Global.
Frankie Pignataro MCM’22, COM’20 is a passionate communication professional, marketing strategist, and storyteller with experience in the sport and nonprofit landscapes.
New Rutgers research has found when politicians, newscasters, public speakers, or people engaged in private conversations make a mistake, they will use a communicative process known as over-exposed self-correction to manage errors that may be (mis)construed as revealing their problematic or amoral attitudes or egregious lapses in competence.
Jordan Meyers MCM’21, COM’20, a program assistant and adjunct lecturer at SC&I, always dreamed of following in her parents’ footsteps and becoming a Scarlet Knight.
Take advantage of the program’s diversity of classes. Being able to familiarize yourself with the different facets of communication and media allows you to narrow down areas that hold your interest. Studying what you enjoy makes you a well-rounded and knowledgeable candidate when applying to jobs.
Roy Woods Jr. MCM'21 recently accepted a new position as the Director of Communications at Springpoint, one of the Mid-Atlantic's largest nonprofit providers of residential and home-based services and programs for seniors. He credits the Master of Communication and Media program for preparing him to be in a leadership position and providing an excellent platform for developing his communications skills.
SC&I faculty and students are attending and presenting research at the 105th Annual Association for Education in Journalism and Mass Communication (AEJMC) Conference from August 3–6 in Detroit, Michigan.
