Communication and Theatre

Learn the art and science of sharing ideas in fresh and creative ways in the Communication and Theatre Department. Whether you envision a career on a theatre’s stage or a legislature’s dais, speaking into a hidden lavalier or a handheld microphone emblazoned with the network’s call letters, you can find your communication niche at 花季传媒.

Study communication from humanities, artistic and social science perspectives by applying knowledge in the fields of journalism, public relations, advertising, marketing, corporate communications, politics, public service and the performing arts. Take your learning beyond the classroom through related cocurricular activities like 花季传媒 Debate, 花季传媒 Theatre, WGRE-FM student radio, D3TV cable access television and The 花季传媒 student newspaper.
