Combine Cabrini University's new 18-credit Sports Communication
minor with a major in Digital Communication & Social Media to land
a job you'll love as a comm professional in the sports industry.
Today's sports organizations have to think beyond the game. Fans
are hungry for a 24/7, 365-day relationship with the players and
teams they love. This relationship is built through online and social
media interaction that grabs attention, keeps fans engaged, and
drives fan loyalty.
Be the person with these technology-enabled skills and you will be
in-demand after graduation. Declare this combination major + minor
today by emailing the Communication Department chairperson at
