The discipline of communication is a cornerstone of a liberal arts education. While recognizing and supporting the broader aims associated with the liberal arts, communication is an inherently practical discipline with a strong tradition of preparing students for effective and ethical leadership in human affairs, as well as providing solid foundations for a variety of professional careers by helping students become more competent communicators.

Many college graduates fit neatly into an occupational niche. For example: education majors become teachers, and human services majors become counselors. The possibilities for a communication major, however, are diverse and virtually endless.
Entry-level jobs for a communication major include: personnel recruiter, labor relations specialist, speech writer, advertising/marketing specialist and campaign director. A career in communication can eventually lead to positions such as vice president of human resources, director of media relations, vice president of marketing, and an administrative officer at a college or university.
