Welcome to the Department of Interpersonal
Communication (IPC). IPC is in the School of Communication Studies
in the College of Arts & Sciences. Its mission is to generate
and share knowledge about human communication in a variety
of contexts and to teach applications for ethical and effective
interaction in personal and professional settings.
The department provides rich opportunities for students to
study and apply theories of human communication to meet the
challenges we face in the 21st Century. Our program is designed
to enable students to examine and assess the process of face-to-face
and mediated communication in interpersonal, organizational,
intercultural and international contexts. Our majors learn
to think critically, creatively, and clearly as analysts,
practitioners, and problem solvers.
