Hello! If you are reading this post because you want to know more about BA Organizational Communication (or OrCom), then good job, you! I’m assuming you’re browsing the internet to know more so since you’ve stumbled upon my communication blog, I’ll give you an idea as to what OrCom is from the perspective of someone who loves it so dearly.
Before anything else, here are some facts about OrCom in the Philippines:
- It is an undergraduate degree founded in 1984 and is currently being offered in the University of the Philippines Manila (UPM) and the De La Salle University Manila (DLSU-M). UPM offered it first as a degree program under the Department of Arts and Communication in the College of Arts and Sciences.
- Its four-year curriculum consisting of 138 units focuses on organization-related communication knowledge and skills to address the increasing demand for expertise in modern communication as related to organizations in the Philippines.
- A bilingual approach is adopted for classroom dynamics to situate the study of communciation processes and organizational structures as the degree program integrates written-oral skills and not just the mastery of either oral or written skills as separate abilities.
