School of Communication & The Arts / English & Communication Studies

English & Communication Studies

The English and Communication Studies area equips students to stay ahead of the rapidly advancing field of communicative art, as well as literature. You’ll be challenged to seek the truth and apply it in redemptive ways to all aspects of culture. We believe literary and communication studies enable us to better understand what it means to be human, how we may best live in community with others, and how to understand and evaluate the history and traditions that have helped to shape us. Offering several exceptional degree programs on the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels.

Regent University, Virginia Beach, offers on campus and online communication degrees at the bachelor’s, master’s and doctoral levels.
