Overview

The communication in organizations major is a completely online degree completion program that teaches students how to successfully navigate and manage both group and interpersonal communication within organizational contexts.  This helps students enhance their marketability by developing the skills necessary to be successful in the modern workplace.

Our coursework highlights organizational communication, interpersonal communication, conflict management, intercultural communication, and workplace relationships.  Through these areas, we integrate theory and practice and focus on the development of relational and organizational communication skills. Individuals who are proficient communicators are more valuable in contemporary organizations that are increasingly global, team-based, and feature flatter hierarchical structures.

All the coursework in this major can be completed online and can be completed in four semesters, though each student should discuss his or her unique situation with an advisor. 

Degree: Bachelor of Arts

Completion time: 46 semester hours required for the major and 120 hours required for graduation
