Communications

Communications, in all its varied forms, is a key workplace skill. Ironically, communicating during a “communications age” offers its own challenges, demanding clarity and precision to be heard through the clutter. Expressing ideas and objectives in a direct way, leaving little to interpretation, is the goal of the communicator.

Get hands-on instruction in spoken and written communications in the Certificate in Communications program. Choose from courses covering topics including intercultural communication, global media, and communication and interpersonal conflict, as well as courses from other areas that will enhance your education, such as sociology, philosophy and modern languages. Participate in discussions and presentations and engage in classroom lectures to develop your critical thinking, writing, research and presentation skills.

The Communications Certificate gives you a solid foundation to work in entry-level positions in the fields of communications and public relations after you graduate, or to go on to further education in other fields.
