Mission

​

​

IMICS, under the College of Communication, in response to the trends in Communications towards greater media convergence and globalization which demands more communications professionals with flexibility and adaptability, has aggressively retooled its curriculum and updated its pedagogic methods with an emphasis on integrated interdisciplinary training. Our goal is to ensure that our students acquire the training and skills they need to function at the cutting edge of the modern communications field.

 

The Communications Department encourages students to study abroad and attend international conferences during the course of their graduate studies. Many students have participated in academic exchange programs to Europe, Asia, and elsewhere. These study abroad experiences allow students to not only conduct meaningful research but also to put international communications theory into practice. Participating in internships in Taiwan and abroad is another excellent way for IMICS students to gain professional training and explore future career options. For those students who do not venture abroad during the course of their studies, each semester IMICS invites globally renowned scholars and professionals in the communications field to join the program as a visiting professor or guest speaker.

 

The International Master's Program in International Communication Studies program is constantly actively seeking new opportunities for improvement and expansion, in order to maintain its high quality of instruction. The Department of Communications looks forward to welcoming further excellent professors to join the faculty, as well as offering even more diverse, exciting courses in the future.
