Focus is also on speaker-audience interaction in public speaking contexts.
The department encourages students to work closely with faculty in advising, teaching, research projects, and informal interactions. Speech Communication majors and minors receive their formal academic advisement from a faculty member assigned by the Director of Undergraduate Studies.
