The Corporate and Organizational Communication concentration
combines courses from Communication
and from the School
of Business and Economics. Students understand the
many ways in which communication -- oral, written and
visual -- and critical thinking and analysis are important
in business and organizational contexts.
Students choose a variety of courses that help them understand
the role and importance of communication in interpersonal
and small group contexts, the relationship between effective
communication skills and leadership, and the ways in which
businesses and organizations use communication both internally
and externally. Theory courses help students understand
the many factors that influence effective communication
in a business or organization. Skills-oriented classes
encourage students to develop and refine their writing,
speaking and problem-solving skills. Applications courses
provide students a forum to study, and to evaluate, organizational
strategies from seminal case studies and local businesses.
