The goal of the Communication discipline is to increase student success in interpersonal and group interactions and public speaking engagements and to give students the tools to analyze what they witness in mass media. With hands-on practice of effective listening, public speaking, and discussion of the cultural implications of verbal, nonverbal, and mass communication in a diverse world, students will become better citizens of a global population. Additionally, this communication training will improve students’ potential to acquire, maintain, and advance in their careers and relationships, transfer to four-year colleges, and navigate through an increasingly intercultural landscape of interpersonal and group associations.
Career options include advertising, broadcasting, community relations, consulting, counseling, education, film, foreign service, fund raising, human resources, journalism, international relations, law, management, marketing, mediation, ministry, politics, public relations, sales, speechwriting, social work, and other related fields.
