The department strives to achieve these objectives through varied coursework designed to prepare students for the variety of careers available to communication graduates, through practical field experiences obtained from an internship program, and through practical experience in other departmental programs. Our forensics program is considered one of the top 10 in the nation.

Graduates from the program are employed in a wide variety of people-oriented careers, including management, community leadership, public relations, sales, and organizational and human resource development. Our on-going transition to an information-based society makes the skills of our majors highly valued by employers. As Roger B. Smith, former General Motors Chief Executive, noted: "Everything we do depends on the successful transfer of meaning from one person or group to another. In fact, it's not much of an exaggeration to say that communication is really what business is all about."

Our undergraduate program seeks to prepare majors for diverse career opportunities, prepare gifted students for advanced work, and develop the communication skills that contribute to the long- term advancement and happiness of all students.
