Whether you are interested in communication studies, information communication technology, integrated strategic communication, journalism or media arts and studies, we offer incredible opportunities that prepare you to compete in a global society. I invite you to review our undergraduate majors, numerous student organizations and other amazing opportunities available to you in our College.

Please explore our CI Connect Living Learning Program, take advantage of your access to work alongside our world-renowned faculty and researchers, enjoy opportunities to apply what you are learning by participating in professional internships, write stories for the Kentucky Kernel, get involved with audio and video production, learn how to incorporate traditional and digital media and new technologies in communication and information and study abroad!

As one of the fastest-growing colleges on campus, we are proud of the personalized attention that our students receive in the classroom because of our relatively small student-to-faculty ratio.

MEDIA ARTS AND STUDIES

Alumni Spotlight Where can a CI degree take you?

Anywhere you want to go!

Our alumni are all around the state, all around the country and all around the world.

They are behind the scenes, documenting the scenes and starring in the scenes.

A CI degree can take you on a journey limited only by your imagination.

Follow in these footsteps or blaze your own trail.

Brentin Ocker, 2009 Communication Account Director, Delta Air Lines at Octagon The most valuable thing I learned in CI is the power of storytelling, particularly in marketing. A compelling narrative can connect, engage, inspire and persuade. The world is more cluttered now than ever before. Consumers have unlimited access to content and data. The ability to share stories that are both authentic and relevant is what ultimately drives action and change. You need simple, emotional communication to help consumers process this information.

Kevin Haney, 2016 Information Communication Technology IT Help Desk Technician, Tesla My CI degree has given me the skills needed to land my dream job right out of college. I think the most important part of the ICT program is the strong emphasis on communication. What you know is only as good as your ability to communicate. Working for a company like Tesla, it’s important to be able to communicate to a diverse group of users with varying technical knowledge.

Hannah Ellis, 2012 Integrated Strategic Communication

Blair Helwig, 2013 Journalism

Luke Reedy, 2013 Media Arts and Studies

Associate Director, CBS Sports

Singer/Songwriter

Since graduating in May of 2013, I decided to move to New York City shortly after and pursue my dream career in broadcast television. First, I became a Production Assistant for CBS Sports. After a couple of years and many hours of training, observing and learning, I became a Freelance Associate Director. It was challenging but the College of Communication and Information made it possible for me. Now, I never have the same day twice; it’s an adventure every day!

Post Production Coordinator on Deception Season 1 (ABC)

I chose my path because I knew that in order to be a great artist, you must be a good business woman. I didn’t like the idea of someone knowing more about how I should market myself than I did. I wanted to be able to have a hand in the business side of my career, not just the creative. I focused a lot on the importance of branding and marketing because as an artist I and my music are the product.

Take advantage of the classes and go the extra mile to work on projects outside of school. I was lucky enought to get an internship at UK Sports Video and it helped me get my foot in the door. Now, I get to work with passionate people that love working and watching TV/ movies.

Since I work in post-production, I get to see the entire process of the show from pre-production to air.
