There is a growing demand for people who can translate complex ideas into clear, meaningful, and ethical communication across all industries. To meet this need and expand the kind of learning experiences offered in the School of Communication, the School has launched a new course that focuses on effective communication in public and professional settings. Introducing CMNS 200: Professional & Strategic Communication, coming in fall 2025. 

This course was designed by School of Communication鈥檚 Jennesia Pedri and Daniel Ahadi. CMNS 200 will help bridge the gap between theory and application, preparing students to use their critical insights in practical and professional ways. 

鈥淭he goal was to create a space for students to connect communication theory to real-world practice, especially in contexts where communication plays a central role in shaping public understanding and decision making,鈥� says Ahadi. 

Through this course, students will develop their own voice, tailor their messaging to different audiences, evaluate impact, create strategic communication plans, and learn to work collaboratively. These skills can be taken into public sector work, community-based organizations, media and advocacy, and many other fields. The course is meant to help students become more intentional and effective communicators with a strong sense of purpose and ethical responsibility.

While bridging the gap between theory and practice is already embedded into many Communication courses, CMNS 200 puts that connection at the forefront. Students will engage in real-world communication challenges to improve their communications skills while drawing from the conceptual and critical foundations that they build throughout the program. 

鈥淐MNS 200 reflects our broader strategy of preparing students to be public thinkers who can move between reflection and action and who understand not just what communication is but what it does in the world,鈥� says Pedri. 

The use of AI will also be a key topic in this course, with students learning how to engage with it both critically and technically. They will explore where AI can be useful in communication planning and where it raises important questions about transparency, authorship, bias, and labour. Students will be encouraged to think carefully about how to use these tools responsibly and how to make informed decisions about when and why to use AI tools in communication work. 

鈥淎s AI becomes more common in communication work, that kind of judgment is just as important as technical skill,鈥� says Pedri. 

The range of professional and effective communication skills taught in this new course will provide a pathway for students to become vital communicators in their teams, no matter the industry they work in or discipline they are studying. All students can enrol in the course today for fall 2025, with no prerequisites.
