About Us

Hands-on learning is what drives this department. As a communication student, you will have the chance to attend live tapings of shows in the city, hone your writing and editing skills as a reporter for The Quadrangle student newspaper, or produce a segment in the on-campus television studio. You also have unparalleled access to internship and career opportunities at New York City's top companies, brands and publications. 

Renovated in 2016, The Sumner Redstone Television Production Center is the first college studio in the New York metropolitan area to have cutting-edge, 4K equipment. Your professors have all worked in the field and are passionate about giving you the tools you need to start a career in advertising, broadcasting, journalism or public relations. You will graduate ready to take on challenging assignments, and knowing the importance of your work.
