CMST 201 - Introduction to Communication Studies
Credits: 3
This course is designed to introduce students to the academic discipline of Communication Studies. For decades, Communication Studies has been mistaken as a discipline that focuses solely on presentational speaking, speechmaking, and public address. However, these elements within CMST represent only a small fraction of the discipline. This course will be an exploration of all the major areas of the field, the history of CMST as a discipline, the research and writing style associated with CMST, the practical and theoretical tools expected of CMST graduates, and the many careers CMST graduates can explore. Term(s) Offered (F=Fall, Sp=Spring, Su=Summer): Sp.

CMST 407 - Communication and Healthcare
Credits: 3
In this course, students will be introduced to the many ways that we, as human beings, communicate about our health. This seminar has been designed to integrate numerous theoretical and methodological perspectives on health communication in order to give students a broader scope of how health messages and health communication processes are enacted, mediated, conceptualized, and studied. In this course, students will read and analyze how we communicate health messages interpersonally, organizationally, rhetorically, and through the mass media. Furthermore, through studying diverse health communication processes, students should become more aware of how these processes influence and impact each other (e.g., television messages about smoking impact how people discuss tobacco use interpersonally). Prerequisite(s): CMST 107 (grade of C or better) and junior standing. Term(s) Offered (F=Fall, Sp=Spring, Su=Summer): F.
