Students can connect with tomorrow's jobs and ensure future successes by experiencing the broader applications of writing, graphic design, audio production, video production and more in the MCC.

By utilizing practicum projects offered through Communication Department courses, the MCC connects real world experience with real life capacity: any enrolled student is provided the opportunity to create, write, publish and distribute media that interests them.
