Continuing a tradition of excellence, Southern Utah University’s Master of Arts in Professional Communication (MAPC) program was recently ranked in the top ten 2021 Best Professional Communication Programs by Best Value Schools.
“We are absolutely thrilled when our MAPC program is recognized in these national rankings,” said Dr. Kevin Stein, professor of communication and director of the MAPC program. “The rankings are totally unsolicited by us and it is always a pleasant surprise to see that others outside of our community recognize the good things we are doing for our students.”
Established in 2004, the MAPC program emphasizes the professional side of communication, focusing on the application of communication theory and research to a variety of professional settings. Even with the recent growth in the MAPC program, professors have still been able to individually mentor students on capstone projects, independent research, and internships. This type of mentorship isn’t always available in programs of this size.
The 36-credit MAPC program can be completed both in-person and fully online in as little as one year. The program is ideal for those working for any company requiring audience messaging capabilities in advertising and public relations campaigns, social media content creation, internal organizational analysis, media production, and more.
