History
Founded in 1965 as Communication Arts, the Department of Communication Studies was the first department to study the art of communication in Canada. In keeping with this ground-breaking tradition, the department has since gone on to develop three highly innovative graduate programs: a Diploma in Communication, a Master of Arts in Media Studies, and a Joint PhD in Communication.
