Organizational Communication and Society

Catalog description

This course will demonstrate how communication is key to understanding how organizations work. Through such topics as culture, identity, structure, systems, globalization, and change, the course examines the ways individuals and society are shaped by interactions with the organizations. Through case studies, we examine the way people communicate in organizational contexts, and the social, ethical, and sometimes political implications. Students are required to have taken two 500 level CMN courses (C-) to take this course, unless granted instructor permission.
