Why Study Communication?

There are many reasons to consider a degree in communication, but we believe there are three distinct advantages to our program.

• Flexibility and customization: There is plenty of room in your schedule to take courses outside the department that cater to your specific areas of interest.
• Practicality: The experience you gain through our class projects, courses, and internships will equip you to be an immediate contributor on the job. Employers love this; trust us.
