Department of Media, Culture, and Communication

Alumni - Media, Culture, and Communication


The Department of Media, Culture, and Communication is committed to the advancement of our alumni. Alumni maintain connections with each other and the department through our web site, list serves, lecture series and networking events. Many return to serve as mentors or guest lecturers, and often provide internship and career opportunities for current students.

Our graduates have a huge resource -- each other. Many work in network and cable television, radio, corporate communication, political communication, marketing, public relations, advertising, publishing, film and digital media. Others are faculty at leading universities or consult and conduct research for the public and private sectors. All are a part of the legacy of New York University, the Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development, and the Department of Media, Culture, and Communication.

Welcome Back

What began many years ago as a small Ph.D. program in Media Ecology has become one of the largest full-service academic departments at New York University. And while some of our alumni have reached the pinnacle of their craft or profession, many are just beginning their careers.
