Department of Communication

There are three majors in the Department of Communication: Advertising & Public Relations, Communication Studies, and Multimedia Production & Journalism. While students develop expertise in their respective area of interest, all majors in the department complete a communication core that develops their knowledge of web communication, the fundamentals of video production, public speaking, communication theory, persuasive principles, and ethical frameworks. Additionally, departmental majors complete a Senior Seminar course that provides critical career planning support, including assistance with resumes and cover letters, the development of a portfolio (both online and hardcopy) and a Signature Project that showcases each student’s expertise. Visit with any member of the department to learn more about how one of our programs (or the minor in communication) could meet your needs.
