The Communication Studies curriculum emphasizes the ability to communicate effectively among a variety of contexts and audiences. Courses will focus on public speaking, argumentation, critical thinking, researching, outlining, performance skills, case construction, relationship management, and teamwork. Students will receive training on how communication is used interpersonally, within small groups, diversely, and in large audiences and mass mediated formats. The curriculum is designed to meet the educational, professional, and personal demands of our students. Students will be prepared to transfer to a four-year institution with a broad range of communication course-work completed. Students majoring in Communication Studies at the lower-division level concentrate on learning how meaning is exchanged in public speaking, small group, interpersonal, and intercultural settings. Students will be able to construct and perform presentations in front of a variety of audiences, assess and evaluate presentations and performances, analyze audiences in multiple contexts, monitor individual communication skills, and research a plethora of topics.

 About This Roadmap:
Below is a suggested major roadmap from discipline experts. This roadmap, based on IVC’s 2018-2019 course catalog, will give you an idea of the suggested order of classes you need to take to complete this degree at IVC; however, please make sure to meet with an IVC counselor to personalize your My Academic Plan (MAP) and verify courses according to the catalog year appropriate to your enrollment. In addition, students who plan on transferring to a university should speak with a counselor to review courses needed, as major course requirements for transfer may be different from the suggested list.
