Program Overview
Communication studies explores how and why we communicate. Students study the ways we use communication techniques and technologies to shape identities and ideas. They explore a variety of communication contexts, from intimate relationships, to public address, to small group interactions, to how we govern ourselves, and examine the many ways communication shapes us. Graduates will transfer with an understanding of communication theory and demonstrate proficiency in communication skills such as speaking in public, evaluating diverse points of view, producing evidence-based arguments, and communicating across cultures.
