Communication @ Cabrini University

Cabrini COM is a program for socially-minded students who want to use their storytelling skills to make a positive impact on the world.

Here, we teach students how to tell stories that matter.

Stories that matter build knowledge, foster compassion, create connections, and highlight solutions to achieve systemic change. They promote a shift in mindset and energize audiences to work together in service of the Common Good.

Be Prepared

The Future of Communication is Digital & Interdisciplinary

Communication today is becoming increasingly more digital, converged, data-driven and audience focused. Students who want to be prepared for this reality need a program like Cabrini COM that blends the study of communication with vital concepts and practices from business, leadership, graphic design, and computer science.

Specifically, a Cabrini COM education prepares students to excel in these multiple intersecting areas of study.

Cabrini COM Majors

DIGITAL COMMUNICATION & SOCIAL MEDIA

The field of communication is constantly changing and expanding in scope. This major responds to those changes by requiring students to take advanced level courses in the use of new communication technologies and software for storytelling purposes. It also requires students to complete a three-course sequence in social media, which includes a focus on social media marketing and measurements of success for social media campaigns.

Two Majors

Both majors include a capstone course experience, as well as a 4-year focus on career & professional development.

COMMUNICATION

This major is ideal for students who transfer in and
cannot complete the required credit hours in the Digital Communication and Social Media major. It is also recommended for students who want to double major in Communication and other complementary disciplines such as Marketing, Business Management, Graphic Design, Psychology, Political Science, and the like. The requirements for the Communication major are similar to those of the DigiCOM and Social Media major, but without the advanced level visual storytelling or social media courses.

Academic Advising in Cabrini COM

As a student in Cabrini COM, you'll get to know all your department faculty members well. One of them will also serve as your Academic Advisor. This COM faculty member will be invested in your
success in the program and in the university, as well as in your life outside of college. Your advisor will get to know you well, come understand your strengths, and use this knowledge to help you do the following:

Plan Your Course Schedule

Meet with your Academic Advisor every semester to plan your course schedule according to degree and graduation requirements, as well as your areas of interest.

Monitor Your Academic Progress

Rely on your Academic Advisor to keep a careful eye on your progress toward graduation, and to assist you with needing to drop, add or withdraw from a course as circumstances may warrant it.

Identify Your Opportunities

Look to your Academic Advisor to suggest curricular, co-curricular or internship opportunities to you that will build your portfolio and prepare you well for leadership and supervisory roles after graduation.
