Do you have a keen eye for important developments, such as sustainability, digitalization or tech trends? Are you the kind of person who likes to understand such developments and explain to others what they mean? Do you want to bring together people or organizations, set them in motion and give them direction? Are you looking for a scientific programme that will also prepare you practically and personally for a role as initiator, connector and explorer? Then our three-year, English-taught Bachelor?s programme Communication Science offered by?University of Twente (UT)?is the right choice.?

In our view, communication has the potential to be a leading discipline in the increasingly complex and fragmentary world of people, organizations and society. In tomorrow?s hybrid society, everything and everyone will communicate: people, vehicles, devices, systems. Organizational structures may change, with new technologies providing them with an ever more intricate nervous system.?

Giving clarity, meaning and coherence to these ?networks of networks? calls for effective interaction and information. It means that communication ? including eye-catching design ? happens everywhere. In today?s world, everything communicates: from product packaging and the use of music and smell in shops to the visual appearance of buildings, and from corporate campaigns to the behaviour of corporate leaders.?
