The M.A. program in Communication Studies at San José State University is grounded in the theoretical and ethical foundations of communication studies; the modes of inquiry employed by communication scholars; and the practical application of these concepts and methods in professional and scholarly contexts.
The mission of the MSW Program is to empower students to tackle local, national and global challenges with integrity, resilience and humility to achieve social, economic and environmental opportunity. We equip our students using integrated social work education to catalyze positive social impact and enhance the well-being of all by focusing on the needs of individuals, families and communities. Valuing evidence-informed practice, service, ethics and respect, we guide our graduates to actively contribute to a better world.
