Welcome to Coastal Carolina University's Department
of Communication. I am thrilled to be the chair of such an exciting department. We have
a distinguished faculty who are knowl-edgeable in their respective fields
and dedicated to meeting our students' educational needs. Since the department's inception in July 2007, we already boast
300-plus majors. Students who major in Communication will take foundation
courses in communication theory, public speaking and research methods.
As they advance through the curriculum, students will choose courses tailored
to deeper study of areas that include: international/intercultural, media,
health, organizational and public relations. A degree in Communication will provide students with fundamental knowledge
of theory and practice of communication in a variety of applications.
Graduates of Coastal Carolina University's Department of Communication
are prepared to confidently enter the marketplace and are in demand in
a host of industries. Please feel free to contact me with any questions.
