Why Communication Studies?

In Communication Studies, we explore the ways in which human communication can help build communities, bridge cultures, organize people, and strengthen relationships.  Our award-winning faculty both research and teach in five major areas: intercultural communication, interpersonal communication, organizational communication, political communication, and rhetoric and argumentation.  With nearly 400 undergraduate majors and 70 graduate students, we are committed to offering a welcoming educational environment and maintaining the highest standards in both undergraduate and graduate teaching.
