An education in Speech Communication emphasizes
analytical, research, organizational, strategic, and
delivery skills. Students learn about the history, theory,
practice, and criticism of communication. The study of
Speech Communication prepares students to be effective
writers, as well as speakers. Like the other Liberal Arts,
Speech Communication ultimately teaches students how to
think, rather than a specialized set of knowledge. Thus, a
Speech background prepares students for a wide range of
possible careers, including the following:
- Advertising
- Cable television
- College or university professor
- Elementary and secondary education
- Government
- Journalism
- Law
- Management
- Ministry
- Politics
- Public Relations
- Radio
- Sales
- Sports information
- Television
- Video Production
