Overview
The Department of Communication Studies offers majors in communication studies and in media studies. The integrated Communication Studies and Media Screen Studies program at Northeastern University allows students to combine courses from both majors into a degree that integrates theory and practice. This allows students to combine Media and Screen Studies with a major from another department. Students can therefore create their own unique combination of majors if a designated combined major does not exist.
