A major or minor in communication is a versatile and timely degree that develops the knowledge and skills required for many different fields, including traditional and social media, advertising, business, international relations, education, public service, government and politics, health care, and public relations. We offer BA, MA, and certificate programs, and a fully online BA. Earning a degree in communication equips students with the oral, written, digital, and teamwork skills employers consistently rank as their most desired employee qualities. Because today’s students are expected to change jobs seven times over the course of their careers, communication is a good choice to prepare for an ever-changing world.

CAREERS Our graduates go on to work as leaders and specialists in a broad range of settings including institutions of higher education, corporations and businesses, health care organizations, non profits, and arts institutions. While some seek a career outside of higher education, others matriculate to the nation’s top PhD programs in Communication.
