RESEARCH There is no dominant theoretical tradition in the Department of Communication, meaning that students have a full range of theoretical foundations to explore or test. In addition, faculty and students in NC State’s Department of Communication employ a variety of methodological approaches to their work, from traditional quantitative and qualitative methods to rhetorical analysis, meta-analysis, and more. As a land-grant university, NC State is committed to applied knowledge, meaning students and faculty are engaged in applied research and communication projects that are meaningful for North Carolina and beyond. See faculty profiles for faculty research.
