http://comminfo.rutgers.edu The Department of Communication is
dedicated to advancing knowledge about communication and its
practice in society. The department examines how meaning is created
and negotiated in human interaction to address the personal,
professional, and public communication challenges and opportunities
posed by 21st century life. Our students become leaders in private,
public and civil sectors by developing a deep and practical
appreciation of how communication shapes the world in which we
live. Research from SC&I’s renowned faculty experts examines
the complexity of communication processes related to five focal
areas: communication and technology, health communication,
interpersonal communication, language and social interaction, and
organizational communication. SC&I’s students may also acquire
knowledge and skills allowing them to pursue careers related to
strategic communication and public relations, leadership, health
and wellness, relational and family communication, and a range of
other options.
