Do you find yourself interested in MARKETING and ADVERTISING? What if I told you that you could create an entire marketing campaign! In the School of Communication that sort of hands-on experience is guaranteed. We call that class Message Design II. <\/span><\/p>\n

Keep reading and we\u2019ll give you a look at the amazing skills you can learn in Message Design II and how you can utilize them in your future. <\/span><\/p>\n

Before we jump into what sort of principles you will learn, how you will learn them and what amazing skill sets you will build up, we have to take a pit stop. Message Design II or SCC 400 is a 400 level course, that means there are some classes that are necessary to take which will help build up your knowledge and <\/span>strength, before you can succeed in Message Design II.<\/span><\/p>\n

What you should already know? <\/b><\/p>\n

Before you take Message Design II, you should have already completed the classes listed below in order for you to have the best experience possible!<\/span><\/p>\n

First of all, SCC 100: Introduction to Strategic and Corporate Communications is a must. The ideas introduced in SCC 100 are so important to your success in the rest of the major classes!<\/span><\/p>\n

Second, COM 210: Theories of Persuasion. This class is so important to helping students understand why different communication tactics work in certain situations!<\/span><\/p>\n

Third, SCC 200: Message Design I. This class introduces students to the basic ideas behind planning and designing a message!<\/span><\/p>\n

Finally, SCC 295: Research Methods. Research methods is a must take before Message Design 2, because you use so much information about evaluating messages in MD2! <\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"What will you learn?<\/b><\/p>\n

Everyone goes and checks \u201cRate My Professor\u201d before signing up for their classes, and we\u2019re here to tell you no matter which professor – even though they are all awesome, and we\u2019ve been told multiple times that the School of Communication has the best faculty, just saying – you take for Message Design II,<\/span><\/p>\n
