Mission of the Speech Communication Department
The mission of the speech communication department is to help students explore how and why people communicate, and the effects of communication on individuals, groups, organizations, and societies. In support of this mission, the department provides a curriculum that:
- Examines communication theory and research
- Encourages practice and improvement of communication skills in a variety of contexts
- Explores communication from a multicultural perspective
- Provides flexibility and choice to best suit your academic and professional aspirations
Our faculty are highly qualified and committed to students. Our speech communication majors are dynamic students who engage in lively class discussions and critical thinking. The department also sponsors the university forensics team, which competes on a national and international level. Students of any major are invited to join.
