Major: Communications (This Major's Salary over time)
I am a Media and Communication Studies major. My suggestion is only declare a majoring in this department if you are interested in studying and taking theoterical courses. This major does not give students interested in broadcast journalism the opportunity to take TV and video courses as they are not offerred here and being run by two idiots- Jason Loviglio and Donald Synder (as well as Rebecca Alderman, Fan Yang, Bryce Peake, Rita Turner, Bill Shewbridge, Elizabeth Patton, Kristen Anchor, Stefanie Marvronis, and others both fulltime and adjuncts) who can't teach and don't know their field at all, especially does not know broadcast journalism at all!! They don't have their own career fair at all. Get ready to teach yourself editing and software (they don't teach it properly in MCS 101L and you just learn old, old software. They just hand you a book and expect you to do it for yourself) They don't want a smart faculty just a culturally diverse one. Students are not able to obtain internships during their time at UMBC nor able to obtain job after graduation meaning you will be unemployed. Go to another university. UMBC fucking sucks!
