About the course

Graduate students in the M.A./Ph.D. and Ph.D. programs develop expertise in a particular area of study, but they also learn to appreciate alternative theoretical perspectives and methodological approaches to studying communication. Coursework brings together humanistic and social scientific intellectual traditions through a unified core curriculum and a wide selection of graduate seminars, both in the Department of Communication and in other departments at the University of Washington. In addition to work in the classroom, research teams bring diverse groups of students and faculty together to investigate and apply current communication theories. Students are encouraged to use their knowledge to address social and political problems facing communities outside academia. Scholarships - View all scholarships Internships
