Welcome to the Department of Communication at Fairfield University. We offer two bachelor of arts degrees in communication and public relations, as well as minors in both areas. If you're interested in our graduate program, you can learn more by visiting our Master's in Communication page.
As students of communication we study messages. Specifically, we examine the verbal and nonverbal messages that people exchange in various settings. These contexts include organizations, families, relationships, healthcare settings, and the media. Though we have communicated our entire lives, it is less common for us to think about how we communicate, why we communicate, and the effects of our communication. Exploring the how, the why, and the effects of messages will be the main theme of your coursework at Fairfield. Content will be driven by research, and students will leave having formed their own evidence-based recommendations for practice. Ideally, coursework in communication will enhance your personal, professional, and public lives.
