The Communication, Organization & Influence Focus Area is for students who work well with others, have effective communication skills, make decisions easily, lead effectively, and can solve problems. Students in this focus area may value interpersonal connections, teamwork, clarity, empathy, leadership, and innovation.  They may enjoy engaging in dialogue, public speaking, conflict resolution, managing, writing, content creation, and media analysis. They may consider themselves to be articulate, empathetic, creative, detail-oriented and culturally aware.  They often thrive in dynamic, interactive settings and could tend to lead or manage others to meet organizational goals or create economic growth.

We recommend USU 1010 for students in their first semester of college. You should also consider taking ENGL 1010 (or a CL2 course if you have credit for ENGL 1010).
