In our three main areas of communication studies, media studies, and rhetorical studies, our students learn to examine the world around them, communicate what they know, and persuade others to their point of view. Classes such as public speaking, persuasion, nonverbal communication, political rhetoric, media criticism, and television and society (to name just a few) prepare our majors for success in the professional and political arenas. We prepare our majors to think critically, speak confidently and persuasively, and solve problems; skills which make our alumni highly competitive in today’s uncertain job market. Our undergraduate major prepares students for a wide variety of potential careers – and the ability to shift between career paths should the need arise. Our alumni work in diverse fields such as (but not limited to) sales, marketing, public relations, social media, broadcast media, the government, law, health, and academia.
