Communication Studies

Submitted by Abderrahim Agnaou

Since communication is a transversal skill that every young graduate should master and that and every good undergraduate program should cover at some point, other than teaching "communication," what would make anyone specialize/major in "Communication Studies"? What makes organizations, both for-profit and not-for profit, hire someone with a degree in Communication Studies? What's the employability of someone who masters at least 3 languages and is a communications major with little research experience?

Communication is a very good major if it is concerned with the communication technologies (Internet, TV, etc). Good technical specialists or researchers can create innovations or new firms or just become very proficient in their field and get well-paid jobs. In the extent of the interpersonal communication a good linguist is a very demanded specialist in many companies. For example people who know Chinese are very demanded in English speaking world. It just depends on the context. The word communication or the general communication course mean nothing unless they are applied to some task or mission. What do you think about it?
