Associate of Arts - Communication Studies - Transfer Degree

Speech is a social science that views communicative behavior as central to human activity: to individual development, to interpersonal relationships, and to the functioning of political, economic, cultural, and social institutions. An Associate of Arts degree in Speech will equip students with a solid understanding of communication theories, decision-making strategies, and practical application of communication activities in a variety of environments. The Associate Degree with a major in Speech will provide students interested in pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Mass Communication or Communication Studies with the lower-division coursework required at many four year colleges and universities.
