Departmental Notes

Notes: Include info on the following:

Classes that do not have a directly equivalent UNC-CH course should reasonably be able to fall into one of our four concentrations (Interpersonal and Organizational Communication; Media and Technology Studies and Production; Performance Studies; Rhetorical Studies).
Courses can count towards concentration or major elective requirements.
Students are not permitted to take more than half of their major courses abroad.
All courses must be received and approved by the Department of Communication to receive credit towards the major. Even courses with similar titles may have substantially different content and thus, must be evaluated for equivalency by the department.
The Department of Communication does not allow transfer credit for courses in Mass Communication, Public Relations, Advertising, etc.

Learning about—and living with—others in the world is perhaps the most important and beneficial life experience. Studying abroad is exciting, invigorating, and, at times, challenging. You will simultaneously understand others and yourself, more fully. Most importantly, it will change you—in profound and often unexpected ways. As you study abroad, you will discover that the world is rich with possibilities. – Steve May, Associate Professor, Communication[/gem_quote][vc_row_inner el_id=”study-abroad-advisors”][vc_column_inner][gem_divider margin_top=”30″][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text css_animation=”bottom-to-top”]
