COMM 250 - Intercultural Communication
Prerequisites:
COMM 100 or COMM 101
The field of intercultural communication examines the ways in which communication creates and represents social orders and cultural identities. In this course students will gain a theoretical understanding of intercultural communication and apply theoretical/ conceptual frameworks to real and hypothetical cases of cross cultural (mis)communication and representation. The relationship between communication and culture will be explored in order to understand how communication does not simply transmit cultural information but constitutes and maintains cultural realities. Further, students will learn to identify the different components of intercultural communication and how these impinge on intercultural encounters in the workplace and the larger community.
