PhD in Communication - Interpersonal Communication in West Lafayette United States | Purdue University

Research in interpersonal communication examines the core processes present in all social exchanges (message creation and understanding). It also analyzes the communication methods (both verbal and nonverbal) used in daily interactions and the objectives people aim to achieve through them, such as convincing, educating, or offering assistance. Our studies explore how communication both influences and is influenced by various relationships, including friendships, romantic partnerships, family bonds, and professional connections.
