Communication, Media, and Performance Major Resources

What is Communication Studies?

Communication (COMM) studies is the study of human communication at large. With a degree in communication studies, our students are able to master communication theories and research, enhance communication skills, and enhance preparation for a variety of different careers or for graduate study.

Communication skills are becoming more necessary in any workplace. Your COMM degree will allow you to craft your own program of study in order to achieve your goals. The balance and flexibility of our program makes COMM a great major!
