The Communications major includes coursework in radio/television, journalism, new media, speech and communication arts. It is also closely allied with elements in the Computer Science and Digital Arts major.

As a point of distinction, both majors include the focus on content and clear communication now demanded by the field, plus a strong hands-on component.

As a second point of distinction, each of these majors takes into consideration the native abilities/skills each student brings to the program, and offers avenues of coursework uniquely suited to those varying skills. These avenues are referred to as Emphasis areas. Between Communication and Computer Science/Digital Arts, there are seven to choose from.

Students also have the option of not selecting an emphasis area, working instead with their advisor to select a unique combination of courses.

No one with genuine interest need be left out of this multi-faceted field. With a strong focus on goals and the guidance of our faculty, students can find and succeed in the communications/new media/computer science/digital arts career path most suited to them.
