Master
of Business Communication (MA)
School of Business
and Economics
Atlantic International University
The Master of Business and Communication
(MA) program objective is to provide students,
already working in their respective fields,
an advanced business education by creating
an environment that facilitates active engagement
with students. This delivery represents
an innovative way to prepare business professionals
for contemporary management roles. The Master
of Business and Communication (MA) program
is offered online via distance learning.
After evaluating both academic record and
life experience, AIU staff working in conjunction
with Faculty and Academic Advisors will
assist students in setting up a custom-made
program, designed on an individual basis.
This flexibility to meet student needs is
seldom found in other distance learning
programs. Our online program does not require
all students to take the same subjects/courses,
use the same books, or learning materials.
Instead, the online Master of Business and
Communication (MA) curriculum is designed
individually by the student and academic
advisor. It specifically addresses strengths
and weaknesses with respect to market opportunities
in the student’s major and intended
field of work. Understanding that industry
and geographic factors should influence
the content of the curriculum instead of
a standardized one-fits-all design is the
hallmark of AIU’s unique approach
to adult education. This philosophy addresses
the dynamic and constantly changing environment
of working professionals by helping adult
students in reaching their professional
and personal goals within the scope of the
degree program.
Important: Below is an example of the topics
or areas you may develop and work on during
your studies. By no means is it a complete
or required list as AIU programs do not
follow a standardized curriculum. It is
meant solely as a reference point and example.

Job Description
Master of Business and Communication
Business Communication: communication
used to promote a product, service, or organization;
relay information within the business; or
deal with legal and similar issues. It is
also a means of relying between a supply
chain, for example the consumer and manufacturer.
Business Communication can also refer to
internal communication. A communications
director will typically manage internal
communication and craft messages sent to
employees. It is vital that internal communications
are managed properly because a poorly crafted
or managed message could foster distrust
or hostility from employees.
