Our Culture
Our programs meld the creative, critical, and empirical dimensions of communication into expressive and analytical tools that prepare students for existing and emerging careers and to become engaged and empathetic participants in their relationships, communities, and in society.
We are training our students to become digital strategists, health communication experts, performing artists for stage, screen and dance (and creative technicians/craft persons/managers behind the scenes), in crisis communications, public relations, film and television, and as educators, researchers, and scholars.
More importantly, we are training our society's next generation of leaders and providing them with real-world opportunities to practice their skills in an entrepreneurial and experiential environment. Students work with dedicated artists, scholars, and professionals in pursuit of grounded and innovative exploration of the communication tools and strategies used to foster human connection and expression.
