Bachelor of Arts [B.A]/Bachelor of Science [B.S] [Communication - Rhetoric and Performance] From Wingate University

The Power of Speech

Picture yourself at the podium. Through critical thinking and the ability to write well, you have crafted and delivered a persuasive case for your ideas. During your course of study in the  major, you have examined the impact culture has on communication and studied the best ways to convey ideas to a diverse audience. You understand the fundamentals of public speaking, including how to maintain your composure and deal with stage fright. Acquiring these skills means possessing the ability to deliver a message that people hear. Up there, you’re unstoppable.

If all the world’s a stage, you’ll want to get out there as soon as possible. Beginning with the communication core of courses, you gain a firm understanding of communication principles. Rhetoric electives, advanced coursework and hands-on opportunities through internships round out your education.

Spread the word(s) and apply all you learn at Wingate University in the workplace. Rhetoric graduates often opt for careers in law, writing or teaching. Many alumni further their study by attending graduate school.
