The National Chengchi University International Master’s in International Communication Studies (IMICS) program in Taipei, Taiwan, and the College of Information and Communications offer a dual master’s degree. The dual degree program gives students the opportunity to acquire the Master of Arts (M.A.) from NCCU and either the Master of Mass Communications (M.M.C.) or Master of Arts (M.A.) from the University of South Carolina.

The main objective of the program is to develop the skills of international and strategic communications. Furthermore, it is meant as a unique chance for students to study from a truly international perspective.

The general structure of the dual degree program is for NCCU students to study at USC for either 24 (M.M.C.) or 18 (M.A.) credit hours, with the remaining portion of the program taught at NCCU. USC students will study at NCCU for 11 (M.A.) credit hours, with the remaining portion of the program taught at USC.

Students from either university are welcome to apply for this dual degree.
