What to Expect

Trevecca’s professional communication program is a two-year associate degree that offers you a solid, versatile foundation on which to build your future. All organizations, businesses, and industries need employees who have strong communication skills, and this program allows you to build your written, oral, visual, and digital capabilities while you also learn about the communication strategies and technologies that can make today’s workplace more effective and efficient. You’ll learn to:

• Produce a well-reasoned and well-researched argument

• Contribute productively and cooperatively to a team project

Two of the highlights of this program are its flexibility and versatility. If you plan to continue with your studies to earn a four-year bachelor’s degree, your advisor will help you choose your four elective courses so you can complete a Bachelor of Science in either organizational communication or communication studies with an additional 10-14 communication credits. You can also choose your elective courses to make progress toward minors like interpersonal communication, multimedia journalism, media arts, dramatic arts, and film production – or toward minors outside the communications department like leadership, business, and information technology.
