Patrick, Ph.D. Professor Emeritus Edmund Skellings, Ph.D. Mission Statement The department provides the foundation on which students build practical skills of writing and critical thinking, intellectual objectivity and analysis. These are preparations not only for a career but also for anyone who wants to write a book or start a corporation, pursue graduate studies or serve as a management consultant. Florida Tech provides a work environment that is richly diverse, ethnically, linguistically and politically. The goal of the department is to provide a program that succeeds in its commitment to its students, and shows them how to wonder at the genius of great literature in the same way that it shows them how to write proposals or launch a public relations campaign. It must also convince students that careful thinking, meticulous writing and imaginative planning are essential not just for success but for corporate survival, and that all jobs in the 21st century will require solid writing and analytical skills, computer proficiency and intellectual openness. Fast Track Master’s Program in Global Strategic Communication This program allows undergraduate students of any major to complete a master’s degree in global strategic communication in one year by earning graduate-level credit hours during their senior year, and applying up to six credit hours to both the bachelor’s and master’s degrees. The program is available to undergraduates who have completed a minimum of 35 credit hours at Florida Tech with an earned GPA of at least 3.2, and who have completed at least 95 credit hours toward their undergraduate degree by the time the approved student begins taking graduate-level courses. The credit hours are treated as transfer credit (GPA does not apply) when applied toward the master’s degree. Interested students should consult their department head for more information about this program. NoNDegree PrograM Languages and Linguistics ____________________ Program Chair Alan Rosiene, Ph.D. Organization Florida Tech’s division of languages and linguistics is operated by the department of humanities and communication. It administers and teaches all foreign language courses offered by the university and provides training in English for students whose home language is not English and who have been admitted into a Florida Tech degree program.
