UVU Communication Department

The academic discipline of communication focuses on how people use messages to generate meanings within and across various contexts, cultures and media. It involves the development of a range of skills, including writing, speaking, listening, interpreting, analyzing and evaluating.

Study in communication provides cultural enrichment and helps students cultivate the "people skills" necessary for success in all professional pursuits. Virtually every modern field of endeavor has increasing demand for specialists with training in the field of communication. The mission of the Communication Department is to help students prepare for careers in print and electronic media, journalism, advertising, public relations, organizational communication, intercultural communication, international relations, government, politics, social service, education, and training.
