Effective communication is perhaps the most important of all life skills, and in the workforce, it’s imperative. Are you an effective communicator? We have path to guide you in exploring how we share on social media, how we understand and translate messages, and how we represent ourselves and others in the public eye. This is the place where you will work closely with engaging professors and peers to transmit and receive messages in concise, effective and transformative ways. Communication is much like storytelling - your best story starts here.
