The program's advisory board includes many active editors, publishers, designers, and executives, and plays an active role in overseeing the curriculum and assuring its relevancy to the industry’s needs and realities.
Full-time students typically serve a 20-hour per week internship with a book or magazine publisher (culminating in an analytical thesis on the experience) and take courses in the evening in midtown Manhattan. Internships have been completed at Seventeen Magazine, The New Yorker, Penguin Putnam, Out Magazine, Field & Stream, etc.

The MS in Publishing can also be completed entirely through online courses, within three years, in the fully accredited eMSPUB program.

The combined B.A. in English/M.S. in Publishing program should be particularly attractive to students who have an abiding interest in literature and language. It is practical preparation for post-graduate dynamic careers in publishing.
