Global Communication

In this class students will apply a comparative perspective to the communicative conditions that prevail in countries across the world, from everyday cultural practices (e.g., diplomatic ways of communicating in various societies) to organizational and policy considerations (e.g., free speech protections or restrictions). Students will sharpen their professional communication skills by speaking and writing on topics addressing issues of policy and administration in global contexts. Open to Austin W. Marxe School of Public and International Affairs students; others with Marxe School permission. Not open to students who have completed PAF 9103.
