  • COM 473: Gender and Communication

    3.00 Credits
    Bryant University

    Session Cycle: Yearly Cycle: This class is designed to explore the complex relationships among women, men, language, and communication from theoretical and practical perspectives. Students will be exposed to relevant gender and communication-related social and political issues, research findings, and theory in a wide variety of contexts. Some of the many specific questions to be addressed are: What is gender? How do we become gendered? How do we display and perpetuate gender through our use of language and nonverbal codes? What are the effects of media on our experiences of gender?, and How do the popular media portray gender and sexuality? Additionally, we will explore differences and similarities in how men and women communicate and contrast research findings in these areas with those views espoused in popular literature (e.g., John Gray). This course emphasizes personal reflection, analytical reading, and critical thinking regarding gendered patterns and communicative interactions that constitute our social world. An open mind and a desire to challenge existing assumptions are necessary. Many of our ideas about gender can be harmful, but they also can be changed. While gendered notions of how humans should, could, or do interact serve socially facilitative functions, they have been detrimental in many ways to individual identities as well as interpersonal and institutional relationships. Because our gendered lives are socially constituted, we do have the capacity to change harmful ways that maleness and femaleness are understood and lived out in our culture.

  • COM 491: Senior Seminar in Communication Theory

    3.00 Credits
    Bryant University

    Session Cycle: Fall and Spring Yearly Cycle: Annual This course examines the major theories used in the study of human communication and the primary theoretical perspectives assumed by contemporary communication researchers. Because there is no single, grand theory of communication, the explanation of communication behavior has been undertaken by a number of other disciplines including anthropology, English, cognitive and social psychology, sociology, and linguistics. Students will examine the contributions of each of these disciplines. An important focus of the class is on examining some of the epistemological assumptions upon which various theoretical positions are based. With a foundation in these assumptions, students should be able to grasp some unity in the midst of diversity. Junior or senior standing is required. 3.000 Credit Hours 3.000 Lecture hours Levels: Undergraduate Schedule Types: Lecture College of Arts and Sciences Undergraduate Division Communication Department Course Attributes: Communication Concentration, Communication Minor, Liberal Arts Elective, Communication Major
