Welcome to the Department of Communication Studies of the University of Cape Coast. It is the largest department housed in the Faculty of Arts. As a department, we pride in the fact that communication is key to the development of societies and the architecture of social relations. With faculty that employ both humanistic and social scientific tools to explore complex issues concerning media, journalism, rhetoric, advertising, public relations, academic communication, the department is uniquely placed to address head-on a panoply of human and societal problems that confront development.
I am happy to report that the department takes a praxis-oriented, ethical, and inclusive approach to engaging and sharing knowledge, first with our students, and our diverse publics. Our goal is to create enabling ecologies that aid in making students become both competent professionals, and ethical, critical global citizens and agents of change for the rapidly changing world of work.
I invite you to take a look at what the department offers by scanning these webpages and learn more about the opportunities the Department of Communication Studies offers to both our undergraduate and postgraduate students.
Thank you.
Prof. William Kodom Gyasi
