The Department of Media, Culture, and Communication is committed to the advancement of its alumni. We encourage alumni to maintain connections with each other and the department through MCC's LinkedIn profile, lectures, and networking events. Many return to serve as mentors or guest lecturers, and often provide internship and career opportunities for current students.
While some of our alumni have reached the pinnacle of their craft or profession, many are just beginning their careers. They work in television, 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 and the Department of Media, Culture, and Communication.
