在这里学什么？

Explore the theoretical foundations of effective communication and empower yourself to become a skillful communicator with our bachelor’s degree in communication studies. Your course of study will be hands-on, filled with practical assignments and internships, and taught by outstanding faculty in small class sizes.

Major Requirements

All communication studies undergraduate majors must take 21 credits of departmental core courses, including argumentation; human communication; intercultural communication; persuasion; presentational communication; and communication theory. You also must complete COMM 201 during your first semester in the department. From there, you will pick one of three concentrations in public, interpersonal, or organizational communication

Concentrations

INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION

Even in an increasingly impersonal digital age, interpersonal communication remains more essential than ever to help businesses and organizations run effectively. Our concentration in this area helps you understand what makes communication effective in personal relationships as well as in small groups and explores such topics as relationship development, nonverbal communication, and conflict resolution.

ORGANIZATIONAL COMMUNICATION

Great businesses thrive on great communication, but it takes highly skilled professional communicators to get everyone on the same page. With our concentration in organizational communication, you will learn to apply communication theory to the practical world of business.

In addition to the 21 credits of core courses required of all communication studies majors, you will take another 30 credits of coursework specific to this area.

PUBLIC COMMUNICATION

Our concentration in public communication provides outstanding training for bachelor’s degree students in the art of connecting with an audience through oratory. Our intensive and engaging course of study will take you through persuasion theory, how campaign communication works, and how to effectively use language in public speaking.

In addition to the 21 credits of core courses required of all communication studies majors, you will take at least 27 credits of coursework specific to this area.
