Program details

Overview

Houston City College provides an Associate of Arts in Communications for people who intend to move on to a university. It follows the statewide field of study framework, and learners may pick a specialization, for instance advertising and public relations, finishing it in addition to the standard degree courses. Whatever the workplace, employers value people who can draft documents, address a room and explain a proposal convincingly. This degree develops those abilities through writing, speaking and presentation work, which also help with job applications, interviews, team projects and everyday professional conversation. The plan pairs the college's required core with elective courses that transfer, normally selected to suit the student's planned major at the receiving school. A person who already holds an earlier degree can pursue an additional one if the college's extra-degree conditions are satisfied.
