Communication
NKU's Department of Communication offers students one of the more diverse experiences on campus. Located in the College of Informatics, the department's programs combine intimate classroom settings, personalized instruction, project-based learning and deep theoretical research:
In this academic and applied department, students will work on research and projects as varied as running PR campaigns for regional non-profits, building Flash websites, developing focus groups, analyzing corporate communication structures and writing news stories.
However, instruction isn't confined to the classroom. The Department of Communication works with a host of student-run organizations that foster a supportive, social atmosphere and provides an opportunity to build real-world experience through internships.
Our award-winning faculty are committed to your success through:
- teaching in classes small enough to focus on you
- offering numerous practical work opportunities
- assigning coursework that builds a portfolio employers want to see
- connecting you with beneficial industry contacts
Once you graduate from the Department of Communication, you'll be connected with a vast alumni network who work as our ambassadors to the world.
