One of the things that makes our program different, is the opportunity to come to campus in Spokane to take classes. This is not a traditional classroom experience, these courses are designed for people like you, who have full time jobs and family obligations. They are short intensive classes offered several times a year.
The Master’s in Communication and Leadership requires you to take the Communication Practicum, a 3-day immersion that is offered five times a year. Of course, once you come to campus, like many of our other students, you’ll likely want to come back as many times as you can.
"When you come to the immersion it is an amazing feeling of community and you have such a diverse group of people coming together."
"Some of the students that I went to my first classes with and had in my practicum are going to be graduating with me and you do create this family, this Gonzaga family, that is unique and I think it will be something that lasts a long time."
"The on-campus experience is absolutely invaluable to the program. Face-to-face with the professors, face-to-face with each other, you’re immersed. It's a tremendous part of the program."
"When I saw all these classes that you could come to campus and meet people face-to-face I knew that would satisfy that need that I have for my own learning style and I'd be able to get a lot more out of the experience."
