The graduate program in Communication Arts and Sciences at Penn State trains students in communication science and rhetorical studies, with particular attention to political deliberation, health communication, interpersonal communication, public address, rhetorical theory, and the rhetoric of public culture. Our graduate students conduct research investigating how communication influences attitudes and behavior, relationship development and family dynamics, public life and public memory, democratic decision making, and struggles for social justice. In the 2021 URAP rankings, Penn State was listed in the top three for the language, culture, and communication field category.<br>Part of the mission of our department is to create knowledge about the role of communication in diverse interpersonal, communal, national, international, and cultural settings. To accomplish this goal, the department welcomes graduate students and affiliated scholars who represent the widest array of identities and perspectives. We value every individual's race, gender, sexual orientation, country of origin, level of ability/disability and political perspective. We respect and seek to ensure each person's right to define their own identity and to craft the language that best represents who they are.
