The Interpersonal Communication sequence is for students who want the knowledge and ability to work closely with people. Classes explore the dynamics of human communication in one-on-one and small group settings, exploring such issues as social attraction, nonverbal communication, intimacy and distance in relationships, conflict management, and group dynamics, all from a communication-centered perspective.

The Interpersonal Communication sequence provides students with the knowledge and skill to be effective and ethical communicators in a variety of personal and professional settings, as well as preparing them for advanced study. Students with an academic focus in Interpersonal Communication are prepared for careers in a variety of fields, ranging from human resources to sales and development, from counseling and social work to conflict negotiation and arbitration, from college recruiting and admissions to political advocacy--in short, any kind of profession that requires the ability to work effectively with other people.
