Global Strategic Communications master’s degree now available fully online

FIU announced today its newest fully online degree program–a degree in Global Strategic Communications (GSC) offered through the School of Journalism and Mass Communications (SJMC) beginning this August.

The program’s focus on communication management and digital communication will prepare FIU graduates to become innovators and leaders in corporate, government and non-profit organizations, according to Kathy R. Fitzpatrick, professor and associate dean for Graduate Programs in the SJMC.

“In keeping with FIU’s position as a global leader in higher education, we are committed to training the most highly qualified communication professionals in the Americas and the world,” said Fitzpatrick. “This new online format will allow students to study with us from anywhere in the world.”

The GSC curriculum reflects the evolving global communications market by providing an international perspective on topics including reputation management, branding, social media, crisis management, and professional ethics. The program is designed to develop professionally-competent, globally-minded and socially responsible graduates who are familiar with the conceptual and theoretical foundations of public relations and advertising, capable of conducting and analyzing public relations and advertising research, and skilled in strategic planning and strategic communication practices and techniques.

The 30-credit hour program can be completed in one calendar year. For more information click here or call 305-239-6332.
