CJN-336 Social Identity and Intergroup Relations
This course will explore communication, identity, and difference. Specifically, the course will provide an overview of theory and research on intergroup communication to explore the ways in which communication both affects and reflects social group memberships. The course will provide students with the theoretical foundation to view and examine various contexts of communication (e.g., interpersonal, organizational, intercultural) through an intergroup lens. In doing so, students will develop the skills to critically evaluate historical, present, and future social issues associated with intergroup relations, as well as develop practical skills for communicating effectively across difference.
