Welcome to the Communication Studies Department!

Mission: We teach and research communication to connect people, create change, and work toward a just world. 

Join us as we explore the fascinating world of human communication! Together, as a Department, we seek to understand and practice communication in ways that will improve the world we inhabit. As you explore with us, you will surely discover that the study of communication has great practical value, in every avenue and aspect of life. Employers rank communication competencies as the most desirable qualifications of prospective employees. Deep understanding—and conscious practice—of high quality communication determines our ability to participate in civic, social, family, work, and personal relationships.

We offer B.A. and M.A. degrees in Communication Studies, so you have plenty of opportunity to become an expert in the field. Join us!
