Communication is one of the most versatile majors available at AU/GWC, leading to a wide range of exciting career opportunities. Corporate communication, public relations, journalism and media production are common job areas, but the list does not end there. Effective communication, writing, and presentation skills are in demand across just about every area of the modern economy.

The study of human communication encompasses the scholarly traditions of both the humanities and social sciences, reaching back as far as Aristotle. The Communication curriculum here is comprehensive, covering the main areas of the liberal arts discipline, but also allowing specialization in several key career areas. A primary component of the program is a required internship or practicum, which earns students real-world experience toward their chosen career path.

This is an Adult Degree Completion Program.
