    Description
    This course prepares students with practical communication skills and knowledge to create satisfying relationships in all aspects of their daily lives: families, friends, romantic partners, and coworkers. Students will learn how theoretical perspectives and research methods (e.g., experiments, surveys, field experience, interviews) influence our understanding and development of skills such as self-awareness, verbal and nonverbal communication, effective listening, emotional expression, and conflict management.
