Pursue Communication

  • Communication majors desire to understand others and be understood by others as they craft messages for a variety of interpersonal settings. They value adapting language and presentation to maximize effectiveness along with listening critically to other perspectives. Communication majors work hard at improving their public presence and quickly building relationships with others.
  • Communication courses are required for all majors, so take one early to see if the major is a good fit. Due to the demand across industries and the variety of applications for quality communication, majors can cross-train across the arts, behavioral sciences, business, and cultural perspectives to prepare themselves for their desired degrees and careers.
  • This degree can be completed completely on campus, fully online, or a mix of both.
  • GHC’s Communication degree is a good first step toward a bachelor’s in Communication, Media & Entertainment, Journalism, Public Relations, or GHC’s new bachelor’s degree in Digital Media & Communication.
