As a crossroads discipline, communication is studied from the humanities, artistic and social science perspectives. The study of communication is built around a framework that allows for an understanding of theory, opportunity for criticism of messages and practice, and research in the discipline. Students study a wide range of communication areas, including rhetoric, interpersonal communication, media and theatre. Communication students can apply their understanding in a variety of fields, including corporate communication, public relations, personnel, advertising, marketing, law, electronic media, journalism, sales, public service and the performing arts.
Most communication students participate in co-curricular activities, such as debate (DePauw Debate), theatre (DePauw Theatre) and student media (WGRE-FM radio and D3TV cable access television), and many are affiliated with the Media Fellows Program. Majors are offered in Communication and Theatre, and minors can be earned in rhetoric/interpersonal, media studies and theatre.
