Communication is the imparting or exchanging of information or news. In the Department of Communication at the University of Nebraska at Kearney, you'll learn and experience different areas of the fast-changing world of communication to prepare you to be a professional in advertising and public relations, journalism, interactive and multimedia, sports communication or communication studies.
Because these are areas where learning is best accomplished through practice, as a student you'll experience radio and video production, will work on a real newspaper, create multimedia stories and work with area organizations and businesses to solve their unique communication challenges in creative ways.
Explore our laboratory/learning environments below with examples of our student work in KLPR 91.1 Radio, The Antelope Newspaper, and in our video production classes.

“I was drawn back into the performing arts , speech and theater. I decided that teaching in both areas was a great way to use my personal strengths and passions. The communication department was very much a family atmosphere – the students were closely knit and made positive connections with staff members who served as mentors during my four years there.”
