Management Communication for Undergraduates
MIT Sloan School of Management's undergraduate course on professional communication for future managers. Students learn to analyze audience, purpose, and context before crafting a message, then apply that framework to writing, speaking, teamwork, and cross-cultural communication tasks. Course materials on MIT OpenCourseWare include the syllabus, assignments, and readings used in the actual class, covering topics like memo and report writing, oral presentations, team dynamics, and communicating across cultural differences in a business setting. As with other MIT OpenCourseWare offerings, the material is free to use and licensed under Creative Commons, with no certificate offered. The course is aimed at undergraduates preparing for management roles who need practical, exercise-based training in workplace communication rather than theory alone.
