Professional Communication

Effective communication is at the heart of any successful professional work environment. This course teaches students key aspects of communication: bridging the gap between oneself and others; using simple, direct, and correct language; using and citing sources, and editing and proofreading accurately. The focus will be on creating effective workplace documents such as letters, memos, proposals, abstracts, summaries, and reports. Students will combine informative and persuasive communication skills to create these documents and to develop and deliver oral presentations.
