Studying Organizational Communication at Weber State

Weber State’s organizational communication emphasis focuses on how symbolic meanings shape organizational conflict, decision-making, and culture. This emphasis is a good fit for students who want to explore how people communicate across cultures and within their organizations.

Organizational Communication Highlights
