Students attending Texas Tech University for the first time in the Fall 2017 term or later will complete a Communication Literacy (CL) requirement in their program(s) of study. Texas Tech University’s transition from the Writing Intensive requirement to the Communication Literacy requirement signals the university’s awareness that in addition to the fundamental role that writing plays in enabling students to explore, develop, focus, and organize a message, other types of communication must also be taught as appropriate for a student’s discipline. Throughout each program of study, then, students must be given ample opportunity to develop their skills in forms of communication central to that program.
Communication literacy in the Department of Advertising is evidenced by competence in writing, speaking, and creating advertising content. A sequenced approach begins with a foundation in writing, then creative design work, and finally a capstone experience that incorporates synergy among written, oral, and creative communication skillsets. The courses that fulfill the CL plan for communication literacy in the advertising major are ADV 3312, ADV 3361, and ADV 4312.
