About IDC

Information Design and Communication programs are designed to meet your needs, whether you are a practicing technical communicator, information designer or content specialist, or making a transition into this career.

You can choose between online graduate certificates in Technical Communication and advanced topics or apply for the M.S. degree program, which combines classroom and online instruction.

The IDC program began in 1988 as an M.S. in Technical and Professional Communication. The name was changed to to what it is now, to reflect growth in the profession and the expanding curriculum. In Fall 2003 the first online certificate in Technical Communication was offered. By popular demand advanced certificates were added in 2005.
