All CCI Majors: Exploration Sessions
The College of Communication and Information (CCI) Exploration Session is designed for prospective students who are considering careers in the fields of digital science (working with computer technology), digital film and media production, graphic design, journalism, photography, photojournalism, communication studies, user experience design (UXD), or data science. The exploration session is a broad overview of the undergraduate majors within CCI as well as information about CCI’s student organizations, including student media, study abroad, CCI’s living-learning community (Olson Hall), and more.
