Communication
What can you do with a Communication Degree?
“The way we communicate with others and with ourselves ultimately determines the quality of our lives.” – Anthony Robbins
Good communication skills are essential for success in one’s business and personal endeavors. Employers seek individuals who have higher level critical thinking, creativity, relationship-building, group communication and interpersonal skills – all concepts taught in our Communications course offerings.
In addition to coursework, GHC also offers exciting opportunities for students of every major to compete for the school-wide speech competition or submit presentations or papers for acceptance at the annual conference. Professors work with all students to prepare them to participate to their fullest.
