Boston University's College of Communication (COM) was founded in 1947 as the School of Public Relations. Today, the school offers undergraduate and graduate degrees in three academic departments: Mass Communication, Advertising and Public Relations, Film and Television, and Journalism. Located on the east side of the Boston University campus (640 Commonwealth Avenue), the College of Communication building is just blocks from Kenmore Square and Fenway Park.

The College of Communication is home to many of Boston University's most popular student-run organizations, including butv10 (television), WTBU Radio, AdLab, and PRLab. COM also offers special internship programs in Los Angeles, Washington D.C., and London.[1]

Each summer, the school hosts the Academy of Media Production, a four-week program for high-school students.
