Undergraduate Programs in the School of Communication


Students pursue one of our majors (Communication: Communication Studies (BA) , Communication: Film and Media Arts (BA) , Communication: Journalism (BA) Communication, Language, and Culture (BA) [SOC] Photography (BA) [SOC] , or Public Relations & Strategic Communication (BA) ) and take a series of carefully chosen skills courses, and communication media studies courses which examine the history, current issues, and future of communication and the media. The ability to write correctly and clearly is stressed in all programs. Additionally, a strong liberal arts background is emphasized by the school. To ensure that communication majors attain this background, a significant portion of undergraduate coursework is taken outside the field of communication.
