Successful UWM students qualify for the nation's top Ph.D. programs. In recent years, our graduates have gone on to pursue doctoral Communication studies at such schools as Arizona State University, Pennsylvania State University, University of Iowa, University of Minnesota, and University of Texas. Equally important is our preparation of Masters students who have aspirations other than doctoral study.
Communication is such a degree.
Employers increasingly prize and reward effective communication skills, and UWM is recognized for cultivating these abilities. Graduate internships, the Rhetoric area's interdisciplinary cooperation with the English Rhetoric faculty, and the Communication Department's aggressive and ever-expanding foray into technological and international communication position UWM graduate students to participate in novel rewarding educational ventures. A silent success. Master's degrees are the hot topic at a meeting on doctoral education. Chronicle of Higher Education , A16.
