Bethel University

Undergraduate Home

Bethel's undergraduate communication program continues to grow at an incredible rate. From 1997 to the present, we've grown from almost 100 to nearly 200 majors and 30 minors in the department. Why?

  • No matter where you're working -- or what you're doing -- communication is vital to succeeding in today's world.
  • When members of the department talk to employers, the #1 skill employers tell us they want is a person who is able to communicate with others, whether it's through writing, speaking, working in teams, or leading teams.
  • The Department of Communication Studies is a challenging but welcoming place. Ours is not the easiest major at Bethel, but our major is a place you can certainly call home.

We have three majors. Two are housed in the College of Arts and Sciences, while the third is in our College of Adult and Professional Studies, and is designed primarily for adults returning to college.
