About the course
Communication majors have an opportunity to study the diverse spectrum of topics encompassed by this dynamic discipline. Courses from approximately twelve different departments, spanning both the College of Letters and Science and the School of Fine Arts are included within the major’s requirements. Although Communication is a Social Science major in the College of Letters and Science, the Divisions of Humanities, Life Sciences, and Physical Sciences also contribute courses to the department curriculum.
The unique breadth of subject matter provides students with a background of scholarship that prepares them for a variety of careers. Students may take courses from Mass Communication and Media Studies, Interpersonal Communication, Communication Technology and Digital Systems, and Political and Legal Communication. In addition, they can also pursue a Computing Specialization, a minor, or a double major.
Communication classes range in size from the typical enrollment of approximately 250 students in COMM 10 to intimate seminars that generally are restricted to approximately 25. Many Communication courses are open to non-majors as well as majors. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
