Put your Communication Skills into Action
As a communication studies student at FHSU, you get the keys for an active education, rather than spending all your time in classes. Gain hands-on experience while developing professional skills necessary for your future.
Here are just some of the opportunities you have to fully experience your major:
- Submit your personal work to local and state advertising and public relations competitions.
- Earn college credit and gain valuable professional experience by taking part in an internship related to your field of interest.
- Take intercultural and diversity classes to gain a deeper understanding about other groups and cultures, preparing you for a variety of work environments after college.
- Take your class on the road, just like the Political Reporting class did in Summer 2007 when they reported from the Democratic National Convention.
- Put classroom theory into action and benefit the campus and local community through service learning projects.
- Meet peers, network with industry experts and develop your professional skills by attending state, regional and national conferences.
- Gain valuable work experience, build your resume and earn a little money by working on the <University Leader>, which is open to all students regardless of major.
Community and Global Engagement
Faculty and Staff are encouraged to report the community and global initiatives they and their students engage in. The aim of this survey is to gather information about community engaged teaching, research, service, and other activities that the FHSU campus community is engaged in during the current academic year. This information will be used to support the University's pursuit and maintenance of a Carnegie Foundation elective classification; specifically, for Community Engagement.
