Organizational Communication, Minor
The Minor in Organizational Communication introduces students to this fascinating discipline, one that explores and shapes communication within organizations such as businesses, non-profits, military entities, and other structured groups. Such organizations follow patterns in their ways of communicating up, down, around, and across their power structures. This can include verbal and nonverbal communication, printed materials, access to communication channels, and more. This minor can easily complement a variety of majors.
