COM 206 - Business and Professional Communication

Credits: 3

in this class, students will develop theoretical and practical knowledge of professional communication broadly, critically interrogate the language and practices of “professionalism,” and apply course materials and critical thinking skills to the current job market, economy, and globalized context in which we live. Course readings, discussions, and assignments emphasize the significance of communication competence at different stages in the job search process, including preparing pre-interview documents, practicing and applying interview skills, interacting with others in multiple organizational contexts, including small group work, and cultivating and maintaining a professional portfolio in traditional and digital Formats.
