Studying Theatre & Communication Arts at Linfield
Linfield's Department of Theatre and Communication Arts houses two distinct but related academic programs.
Communication Arts
Those who study communication arts explore the role of communication in human interaction. Topics range from public speaking and rhetoric to persuasion and political communication to interpersonal, nonverbal and intercultural communication. You can earn a major or minor in communication arts or a major in intercultural communication.
Intercollegiate forensics

Compete regionally, nationally and internationally in individual speaking and interpretation events as well as British parliamentary (worlds) debate. Participation in Linfield forensics is open to all students.
