Augustana College offers a major and minor in communication studies, a major for teaching speech communication language arts and a major and minor in multimedia journalism and mass communication. The faculty specialize in a range of areas, including media studies, rhetoric, interpersonal communication, public speaking, education and organizational communication -- providing students many opportunities for networking and making connections.
The faculty are committed to a curriculum focused on thinking, writing and speaking with both reason and passion. Almost all courses use discussion as a teaching tool, and students are encouraged to express their views in terms of the text or topic as well as personal values and priorities. Each student learns to rise to the challenge (and recognize the fun) of active dialogue, and to develop and communicate his or her ideas in a group setting.
