About the Program
Grounded in rhetorical inquiry, the TPPC program provides students with advanced study in the communicative and cultural dimensions of artifacts, processes, and technologies. Researchers in professional communication are particularly interested in how communicative practices shape and are shaped by culture, technology, history, and theories of communication
Our understanding of what professional communication encompasses is broad, embracing a diversity of rhetorical contexts and situations, including business, academic, scientific, technical, and non-profit settings. Example areas of study are:
- Everyday writing in the workplace
- Writing pedagogy of the nineteenth century
- Implications of new media on communicative practices
- Theory and design of online learning
- Oral presentations
- Production of CD-ROMs and websites
