The Program in Communication and Media offers two undergraduate degrees: the bachelor of arts (B.A.) and the bachelor of science (B.S.); the former is more humanistic, the latter more technological. The program entails study of a set of core courses covering various aspects of communication, and course concentrations of choice in four disciplinary areas: Literature (with an option in Education), Media Arts, Professional and Technical Communication (with an option in Journalism) and Theater Arts.

Both degrees prepare students to work in the expanding and rapidly transforming field of high-tech communications such as the World Wide Web. In offering a broadly based educational experience, each degree readies a student to enter any one of a number of professional fields. Today, communication specialists are required for a wide range of positions in business, industry, government, journalism; and in artistic, humanistic, scientific, and technological communities. Professional communicators are needed to serve as editors, researchers, and writers. The typical Communication and Media graduate can work in occupations such as multimedia design and communications; technical communication; journalism; television; film and video production; print publishing; theater; graphic design; education; quality assurance documentation; advertising; grant proposal writing; medical and/or scientific reporting or analysis; and technical reporting or analysis.

The bachelor's degrees also serve as the foundation for a graduate degree in journalism, literature, law, theater and writing. There are accelerated programs leading to medical, dental, physical therapy, optometry and law degrees, for qualified students, who also can enroll in the B.S./M.S. program in Professional and Technical Communication, in which students earn a bachelor's and master's degree in less time than if earned separately. In addition, students may earn primary or secondary school teaching certification.

Both the B.A. and B.S. have the same core curriculum including a co-op work experience consisting of two semester-long internships in appropriate fields and a senior project capstone course in which a student produces a substantial, original work consisting of either a traditional research thesis, a substantial work of creative writing (such as a novella), or a practical communication application. In addition to NJIT courses, a number of courses in related areas offered at Rutgers-Newark may be taken for degree credit.

Double Majors
Students may earn a second major in addition to the Communication and Media major. A double major with the B.A. or B.S. in Communication and Media and the B.A. in History, for instance, is usually feasible within four years of full-time study. For general rules about double majors, see Degree Options in the Academic Policies and Procedures section of the undergraduate catalog. For further information about appropriate double majors with the Communication and Media program, contact the Humanities department.
