Bachelor of Arts in Communication

[Degree Requirements]

Undergraduates will earn a degree in Communication with a concentration in one the following areas:  Communication Studies, Film and Media Arts, or Integrated Media.

People often wonder, "what can I do with a degree in Communication?" and the answer is: your options are limitless.

The Communication discipline touches every aspect of our lived experience. In fact, that's why some people do not understand what the study of communication entails. We learn to talk as toddlers, elementary and high school teaches us to construct sentences, and public speaking is just a matter of talking in front of people, right?

At ULM, we have taken a pragmatic approach to help students understand what the study of communication entails, as well as how what they study relates to what they will do when they leave our campus.

Do you love motion graphics and shooting and editing movies? Then our Film and Media Arts Concentration might be right for you. Are you interested in understanding how we communicate as a culture? Our Communication Studies concentration may be calling your name. Or, maybe you would like to help a company cultivate ethical relationships and serve as its public face. Integrated Media could be just the right thing for you.

No matter which concentration you choose you will acquire the knowledge and skills to be competitive in the market, and maintain positive, productive relationships professionally, personally, and globally.
