Bachelor of Arts in Communication

In today's world of media saturation, technological change and globalization, studying communication sharpens the skills needed to succeed in your academic, professional and personal life.At SLU-Madrid, we don't think in terms of being flexible and adapting to the world as it is; we seek to educate students who will re-design the world for the better rather than acclimate to its current conditions.Composing an email. Decoding someone's gestures over lunch. Talking on the phone (while discreetly watching YouTube). Reading the newspaper and wondering how and why it represents and distorts the world it covers. Pondering a photo. Deciding when and how to tell a secret. If these and other communication-related practices are what you regularly do and provoke endless fascination, then our program in communication is for you. Our faculty is dedicated to deepening your understanding and capacities within a vigorously cross-disciplinary, socially conscious academic environment.

Unless exempt, you must also show academic English proficiency (see the English requirement)
• letters of recommendation, a CV/résumé and an admission interview are optional.
