ADVISORY BOARD

The size, influence, and commitment of our advisory board is a valuable asset to students in the M.A. in Graphic Communications Management and Technology program. A look at the companies represented by our board members and the key positions they hold in the industry says it all.

A variety of events organized by our advisory board—including a speaker series, seminars, site visits to conferences and companies, and social activities—focus on vital topics presented by industry experts. The Advisory Board Mentoring Program pairs you with an advisory board member who shares with you his or her experience, expertise, and real world observations. As your bridge between the academic and professional worlds, your mentor may help you find an internship or job or help you better apply what you’ve learned in the classroom to real life scenarios.
