Department of Humanities and Communication

Bachelor of Science in Communication Faculty

Program faculty represent a wide range of professional interests and areas of expertise ranging from public relations and organizational communication to technical documentation and instructional design. Because the program finds its home in the Department of Humanities, students enjoy the broad outlook of a liberal arts point of view yet take classes and study with future engineers, scientists, and business leaders.
