Undergraduate Course Offerings
BNAD 314 - Business Communication
BNAD 314 introduces students to the skills needed to communicate effectively in a team-based, technologically enhanced environment. This course focuses on the communication strategies that are essential for success in a global business environment, while providing a small-class structure for exchanging ideas and building skills. As an exit measure, students must demonstrate their writing proficiency in an electronic, in-basket exercise, the Mid-Career Writing Assessment.
Most sections of BNAD 314 follow the prescribed curriculum for the majority of Eller business students. Certain sections of BNAD 314, however, have been designated as (1) honors sections, where students are expected to meet a higher level of achievement and will receive honors credit for the course or (2) PA sections, where public administration majors follow a variation of the B AD 314 curriculum targeted more to the communication demands of non-profit and government careers. |
BNAD 314L - ESL
The Business Communication Program offers a one-credit workshop to any BNAD 314 student wanting ESL (English as a second language) support. The workshop, BNAD 314L, offers group discussions, written and oral practice, and one-on-one private tutorials to help students improve their written, oral, or team skills. |
