The Bachelor of Arts with a major in communication program prepares students to solve 21st century problems. The major offers two tracks:

Public relations and corporate communication focuses on strategic communication to build relationships between organizations and their audiences. In new media production, reworks journalism for our digital age by satisfying society's compulsive need for instant information.
In communication, you take solid theoretical preparation and learn how to use it in hands-on situations.
