Dean’s Message


Greetings,

Undertaking graduate study at Emerson College makes you part of a vibrant community of scholars, artists and marketing and communication professionals, all of whom believe in the vital importance of language, communication and the arts. Our dedicated faculty, accomplished and active in their fields,  will guide your development, encouraging you to expand your skills and deepen your thinking, integrating new knowledge and fresh perspectives. Our diverse, multicultural student body is composed of people from around the world who share an excitement about learning. Our graduate programs in marketing communication, publishing and writing, popular fiction writing and publishing, journalism, creative writing, theater education and applied theater, public relations, political communication, sports communication, communication disorders, the business of creative enterprises, writing for film and television, film and media art, and media design are all rooted in a common belief in the power of connection, collaboration and communication to change the world. 

My goal for you is that you accept the challenge you will find here to grow professionally and creatively, think critically and independently, work collaboratively and ethically and that you emerge from your time at Emerson not only ready to accomplish your professional goals but also to contribute meaningfully to the society in which you live. The mission of Emerson College graduate programs is to educate not just leading professionals but transformational leaders in the fields of communication and the arts. 

I believe wholeheartedly that each of you is up to this challenge.  I can’t wait to see what you do with it.  

Welcome to the Emerson community. Let’s get to work. 

With warm regards,

Dean's Signature

Kimberly J McLarin
Interim Dean of Graduate and Professional Studies
