PhD in Communication at North Carolina State University
The College of Humanities and Social Sciences at NC State offers a new interdisciplinary Ph.D. program in Communication, Rhetoric, and Digital Media (CRDM). Built on the premise that new developments in communication media and information technologies require a dramatic shift in instruction and research, this program integrates the study of oral, written, and visual modes of communication to focus on the human dimensions of information and communication technologies.
Students in this program work with a diverse and accomplished faculty from the departments of Communication and English, use the resources of a high-tech campus, and build relationships with Research Triangle organizations. A highlight of the program is its emphasis on professional preparation, including a course in digital pedagogy and a colloquium devoted to professional issues and practices.
