Oral Communication Program
If you are an undergraduate student, the information you are seeking about Oral Comm can now be found on the new Undergraduate Academic Life website. Undergraduate Academic Life is the new comprehensive web resource for academic information, advice and opportunities for Stanford undergrads.
The Oral Communication Program at CTL provides a range of opportunities for undergraduates and graduate students to improve their oral communication skills. Courses and workshops offer a comprehensive approach to speech communication that includes training in the fundamental principles of public speaking and the effective delivery of oral presentations. With the goal of enhancing students' general facility and confidence in oral expression, the program also provides innovative, discipline-based instruction to help students refine their personal speaking styles in small groups and classroom settings.
In addition, students interested in individualized instruction or independent study are invited to visit the program's Speaking Center on the fourth floor of Sweet Hall, where trained student consultants, audio/video technology, and a variety of instructional resource materials are available on an on-going basis.
