Newhouse School of Communications

Undergrad Majors:

Our nationally recognized undergraduate programs emphasize the professional skills and ethical awareness required of communication industry leaders. Majors available include advertising, broadcast journalism, magazine journalism, public relations, television/radio/film, photography, graphic arts, and newspaper journalism. To ensure that all Newhouse students graduate with a firm grounding in the liberal arts, we require that fully two thirds of the courses taken come from the arts and sciences taught at the University as a whole. Also, Newhouse students must have a minor area of study chosen from a vast array of possibilities at Syracuse. Many of our students also elect a second major from outside the School.

"I tried and experimented with a lot of different things at Syracuse.. and I had those choices. To me, that's the strength of a liberal arts institution and Syracuse is one of the best."
