This course is designed as a work world preparation course for all majors. As students ready to leave the relative safety of the cocooned worlds of their chosen disciplines, this course provides practical tools and information necessary to succeed in a diverse and changing world of work. By combining interactive learning, current and relevant readings, and key presenters, the course will help completers integrate more smoothly into the next phase of their lives. As the world shrinks and we find ourselves playing roles in an increasingly diverse society, understanding the communication process and how culture, race and gender affect interpersonal communication becomes ever so more important for all of us. The class will take an objective look at our own beliefs and the beliefs and systems espoused by our chosen disciplines. The students who graduate today will create the way our fields operate in the future.
