Students are required to complete 36 hours towards the degree, including a professional project or thesis requirement. Full-time status requires 12 hours per semester, making it possible to complete the degree in three semesters. The preparatory nature of the curriculum combines the theoretical foundations, methodological tools, and practical applications.
The Department of Advertising at the University of Illinois is the oldest such program in the country. We are grounded in the principles of our founder and " father of advertising education" Charles H. Sand, age, that students must understand the theory of advertising as well as the practice. His goal was to enable students to become leaders and problem solvers. We honor that vision by maintaining a cohesive curriculum that provides foundational courses, but also allows for flexibility of interest through electives both within and outside the college.
