The reality is, you’ve been studying communication your whole life. Every text you send, every smile you see, every podcast and news report you hear ... it’s all communication. At UB, you’ll learn how humans relate to each other through different types of communication, how you can be a more effective communicator, how to analyze communication methods and more, all using a scientific-based approach.What will I learn?You'll typically start by learning about how people communicate, whether they're doing it one-on-one, in small groups, within an organization or through the media. From there, you can go deeper within one of those areas or focus on a related topic. Maybe you're fascinated by intercultural communication or nonverbal communication. Perhaps you want to study persuasion techniques, new technologies or public speaking. You can even study communication within a specific field such as health care, education or entertainment.
