COMM 3710U – Intercultural Communication


How does “culture” shape the way people communicate? What are the best practices for communicating within and across cultures? In multicultural societies, citizens from many cultural and linguistic backgrounds communicate at work, play and in politics, but much is often lost in translation, even when they speak the same language. This course examines the theories and practices of intercultural communication. Students will self‐reflexively examine how culture shapes communication, hone their cultural sensitivity, and learn how to communicate effectively within many cultural contexts.
