University of Georgia’s Grady College offers undergraduate degrees in advertising, entertainment and media studies, journalism and public relations, along with certificates in new media, public affairs communications and sports media. Grady also offers three graduate degrees; a master’s and doctoral program of study plus a Low-Residency Master of Fine Arts in Narrative Media Writing. Grady is a leader in journalism research and education and is home to several prominent centers and institutes, including the Peabody Awards, recognized as the most prestigious award in electronic journalism, and the National Press Photographers Association. 

UGA also has a strong commitment to sustainability. The UGA Office of Sustainability, established in 2010, coordinates, communicates, and advances initiatives in teaching, research, service, student engagement, and campus operations. In alignment with UGA’s Great Commitments to create healthier populations; stronger, more resilient communities; and a safer, more secure future for all; our sustainability initiatives provide meaningful experiential learning for students and valuable support for the communities we serve.
