Overview

Program Description The Communication, Media and Theatre (CMT) Department, as suggested by its name, includes three distinct, creative and demanding disciplines that are linked with their foundation in the study of communication in a variety of contexts. Students majoring in these areas will learn to become more proficient in the theory and practice of communication, media and theatre arts, while developing an appreciation of differing values and perceptions of the world in which they live. Students at NEIU will have opportunities to acquire hands-on audio/video editing experience in a state-of-the-art media lab, to participate in all aspects of Stage Center Theatre productions, and to benefit from professional internships with leading organizations around Chicago. Students who obtain their Bachelor of Arts in Communication, Media, and Theatre can expect to find careers in journalism, video/audio producing, Social Media, screenwriting, public relations, acting, directing, stage management, lighting design, and costume design.

Optional Practical Training (OPT)
