The University of Alabama at Birmingham

Department of Communication Studies

The Department of Communication Studies is concerned with human deliberation and communication in all its forms. Students majoring in Communication Studies may concentrate in Communication Management or Mass Communication (with specializations in broadcasting, journalism, or public relations). The concentration in Communication Management is designed for students interested in the general principles of communication from interpersonal relationships to the theory and practice of public advocacy. The concentration in mass communication allows students to specialize in journalism, broadcasting, or public relations. Minors are available in each of the areas of study offered by the department. Students may pursue a double major in the degree concentrations or major in one while minoring in the other. A minor is required, although it does not have to be taken in the department. Students interested in studying communication should consult the department chair as well as the requirements set by the School of Arts and Humanities.
