Communicate to influence, to persuade, and to express. Communicating well and understanding the communication process are essential to professional success in many fields.

Studying the communication process helps you understand how the human mind works. Analyzing the messages in advertisements, television programs, and political speeches helps you to understand our society. And, studying communication in everyday relationships, groups, and organizations shows us how these systems are created and maintained.
