Our Program

Our program is fundamentally about choices.

Communication involves choice, and choices have consequences.  Our students learn to make strategic, ethical communication choices across a variety of contexts--including mass media, interpersonal relationships, small groups, and organizations.  

The Communication Studies program at Longwood offers students a choice between two concentrations:

Mass Media

Organizational Communication and
Public Relations

Of course, students are free to take courses from either concentration as electives, or to add a Minor such as Graphic Design, Business, Photography, or Technical Writing.
