Master of Science in Mass Communications - Media Leadership

We are revamping this concentration and therefore will not enroll new students in 2023. However, if you find this concentration interesting, check out our integrated communication concentration. It's part of the same degree program in our school and shares 50% of the same courses as the multimedia journalism concentration.

Integrated Communication

Our tenacity. Our love of the city. Our commitment to diversity and access.

These are the things that drive us and make us one of America’s premier research universities. They are what set us apart from your average college. They are how we make it real.

When you’re a Ram, you know you are part of something big.

You’re part of a culture that values hard work, stick-to-it-ness and even — dare we say it? — grit. You are part of a community that loves its city, serves its city, and learns from its city. As a Ram, you also love a good Cinderella story — like the time VCU surprised the country and made it to the NCAA Final Four. These are the success stories that make you cheer, make you proud, and make you #RamProud.
