People
To support a broad range of course offerings, the Communication Department has assigned full-time faculty to teach the required classes. Our introductory classes (The Rhetorical Traditional and Survey of Mass Communication), research methods, theory classes, and writing-intensive seminars are taught by full-time faculty with Ph.D.s in communication. Electives are taught by full-time faculty members and by professionals with relevant industry experience.
The Communication department employs part-time faculty to teach our applied offerings. All of our part-time faculty either have extensive professional experience or graduate degrees.
