Faculty conduct research and teach within a broad range of communication disciplines, including performance studies, media and technology studies, rhetoric, media art production, and organizational and interpersonal communication.

As the largest unit on campus, the College of Arts & Sciences forms the academic core of the Carolina experience.

The Department's doctoral program offers a theoretically rich, interdisciplinary, problem-based approach to education and research that enables graduate students to define their own research in response to the changing demands of a constantly evolving communicative and cultural world. The Department's majors, as well as the hundreds of pan-University non-majors seek out our classes for a set of critical capacities that contribute to an engaged, creative, and critical 21st century citizen.
