Communication Studies helps students develop and improve their understanding of human communication through both theoretical and practical exploration. National workplace surveys have shown that communications skills are ranked as the top attribute sought by potential employers, as communication competency is critical to achieving excellence. Even presidential candidates and CEOs routinely participate in training to improve their communication abilities.

Using verbal and nonverbal delivery skills and visual aids, students will learn how to present a message to an audience in a conversational and confident manner. They will formulate communication solutions to problems in a range of contexts, create messages for diverse audiences and listeners, and develop an improved understanding of themselves as communicators.
