| The Communication Studies major, with concentrations in Communication Studies and Storytelling, prepares students with the essential career competencies that employers seek most often: managing conflict, working in and leading teams, embracing diversity, communicating ethically, and communicating like a professional be it a memo, a one-on-one interview, a sales pitch, or corporate seminar. Skills garnered from the Communication Studies concentration prepare students for entry to law school and counseling programs as well as work in strategic communication, health administration, patient education and advocacy, social services, the ministry, human resources, sales, training and development, customer relations, and management. The major is also excellent preparation for work in social justice, civic engagement, and diversity/equality efforts. The department also provides a teacher education major in communication studies that requires 36 credits and a teaching minor that requires 24 credits. |
