Bachelor of Arts (BA), Communication

At Charleston Southern, you will be introduced to both the rigors of the professional mass communication landscape and the intricacies of how people communicate on an individual, cultural and societal level. The Bachelor of Arts in communication studies is the melding of the theoretical and the practical elements of the communication world. This approach offers our majors a diverse educational experience that prepares them for a future as a professional communicator in an ever-changing technological environment. Because of our relatively small size, you will get to know our faculty, and they will know your strengths and weaknesses, allowing them to better mentor you and prepare you for life after college. 

Our students are required to complete a professional internship, which will give you an understanding of the professional world and open up possible avenues of employment prior to graduation. In addition, we have a close working relationship with CSU’s Office of Marketing and Communication and the Office of Sports Information, offering our students an additional opportunity to get professional experience in an on-campus environment.

“I just can’t even put into words all the knowledge that I’ve gained from the amazing professors; they know your strengths and weaknesses … the small class sizes are amazing. They know your name, and you’re not just a number. They care and want to do whatever it takes to help you succeed.”

At CSU, we stress the intricacies of the communication industry in a Christ-centered environment. We prepare our students for future careers in journalism, public relations or graduate school.

Located in one of the fastest growing areas of the United States, the Charleston metro area offers ample opportunity for internships and a deeper dive in your field of interest. It is an area rich in culture and history, and quickly becoming a global melting pot.

The College of Humanities and Social Sciences is the largest college on campus and prepares students to think more critically and find their purpose.
