PROSPECTIVE UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS

Knowledge and skill in human communication is central to personal, economic, political, legal, social, and educational pursuits. It is at once the body of knowledge that informs our understanding, and the vehicle through which we gain and disseminate that knowledge. In the Department of Communication at Texas A&M University we examine human communication at the undergraduate level through three different degree plans.

The Bachelor of Arts in Speech Communication provides instruction in both the principles of effective communication and the application of those principles in a variety of communication situations. Speech communication is an attractive major because it provides students with a broad liberal arts education, while at the same time focusing on vital communication skills which are much in demand in the working world.


The Telecommunication Media Studies curricula are designed to develop leadership in the fields of information and telecommunication. They teach technical expertise but also provide broad knowledge of social institutions, public policy and human communication. The program offers two degrees. The Bachelor of Arts in Telecommunication Media Studies offers a broad liberal arts education while emphasizing content design, implementation and use of telecommunication media. The Bachelor of Science in Telecommunication Media Studies provides a liberal arts perspective while emphasizing technology applications and maintenance, and telecommunication media systems.
