Communication Studies is an interdisciplinary program that draws from and combines an array of disciplinary backgrounds such as English, Film Studies, Anthropology, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology. This interdisciplinarity allows students and faculty alike to draw on a variety of approaches, theories, methods and other resources for analyzing communication in social, economic, political and cultural environments that are rapidly changing and becoming increasingly complex. The program at Laurier offers a four year Honours degree, and a four-year Combined Honours degree in which Communication Studies is combined with another Honours major. There is also a co-op option that allows eligible students to work in communications-related summer jobs. Students in the program take courses from the Communication Studies Core, as well as Elective courses, including courses from other disciplines, such as psychology, English, business, philosophy, and geography. The program is designed to allow students to customize their education to match personal interests and career plans, permitting them to keep pace with rapid changes in the field. The department offers a Master of Arts in Communication Studies, for further information see our Master of Arts link.

Dr. Martin Dowding has recently completed an analysis of the social and institutional effects of privacy legislation on Ontario University campuses. The research, funded by Wilfrid Laurier, is part of a larger ongoing project leading towards the publication of a book with Scarecrow Press, titled A Reader About Privacy: Defending an Illusion?, scheduled for publication in 2010. Since completing his PhD on the deployment of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) in the U.S. and Canada, he has continued to research communication policy in Canada, the U.S. and Latin America.
