Overview

At Saint Louis University Madrid, they 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.

Major in Communication

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. The faculty is dedicated to deepening your understanding and capacities within a vigorously cross-disciplinary, socially conscious academic environment.

The Communication undergraduate major provides students with a comprehensive, internationally focused education in communication in an exceptionally diverse milieu. Faculty members enact a blended approach to theory and application that emphasizes intellectual curiosity for its own sake while cultivating useful skills.

Internships and Careers

Qualified communication students may choose to earn up to three credits toward their degree by doing an internship. These students learn to implement the skills they study while gaining valuable professional experience at companies and non-profits in Madrid.
