COM 2801 - Communication and Society

Credits: 4

For personal and professional reasons, it is imperative that you are able to effectively communicate and relate with others. This course has been designed to introduce you to a series of interpersonal and organizational communication theories focused on relating with others. The theories covered in this course present a comprehensive view of each theory and how to apply that theory to personal, social, and workplace relationships. In so doing, this course will center on issues such as self-concept, perception, self-disclosure, power, and conflict. While it does not offer a formula for communicative success, students will become aware of the communication processes that both disintegrate and nurture dynamic human relationships.
