Key facts

Our Media Studies and Production faculty provide you with the attention and specialization of a small school as well as the industry knowledge and technology of a global university.

Our faculty is intentionally composed of industry professionals with a wide array of experiences, expertise, and training backgrounds, exposing our students to a variety of sub-disciplines both within and outside the Media majors. Perform Media Studies and Production Work for Real Clients:

At Marist, we firmly believe that producing media that meets the needs of real clients, rather than simply satisfying the requirements of a class assignment, provides the real-world skills for an edge in the industry. That’s why our Media Studies and Production students are given the opportunity to produce work for real clients in the community, and even collaborate on interdisciplinary projects with students from other majors.
