Communication & Digital Media
Introduction
Communication & Digital Media is a program taught at Wittenberg University, USA. The program is offered in campus-based modes with full-time options.
The Communication & Digital Media major focuses on the processes of communication that vary according to situations, including theories alongside communication practice. Students study human symbolic interaction, with special emphasis on how digital media shapes interactions, across multiple communication contexts and examples.
Courses are organized into intro courses with elements and theories of communication, intermediate courses focused on contexts such as interpersonal communication, changing media, and making effective arguments while preserving relationships, and methods courses that frame and explore communication questions. Advanced study seminars cover professor areas such as Social Media, Environmental Communication, Intercultural Communication, Relational Communication, and Gender and Communication. A senior seminar in communication ethics examines what is right and wrong to do with newly honed skills.
