Undergraduate Courses
The Business Communication Program offers the following undergraduate courses:
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.
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.
