In addition to our thriving undergraduate major, many students find that
Communication makes an excellent minor field of study.
Minor for Arts & Sciences Students Only
For those students currently enrolled in the College of Arts & Sciences,
minoring in Communication is very easy to fit in with most programs of study. Students within the College of Liberal
Arts & Sciences can minor in Communication by taking five (5) courses:
-
COM 1000 - Surv of Communication Studies
, and
- Any four (4) other courses in Communication
This means that, after taking our introductory course, you are invited to take a
look at all of our course offerings, all of our specializations, and design a
minor that fits the specific interest that you have in the field of
Communication. You might even choose to focus your minor in one of our 8
specializations, which would let you develop some depth in one area of
our field.
Please note, however, that if you are interested in a minor
specializing in
Media Studies,
Media Production, or
Journalism, you may be required to
take, as one of your 4 other courses,
COM 1300 - Film Analysis
(this course can
also count as your A&S fine arts requirement). In addition, since there are
2000-level prerequisites for all of our 3000-level (advanced topics) courses,
students interested in specialized study in Communication should plan to take
their 2000-level prerequisite as one of these 4 other courses.
If you have questions about a Communication minor, or want to learn more about our
specializations, please contact us.
Minors for Students in Other Colleges (Business, Engineering, Nursing)
Students enrolled in the School of Business should look at our
specially-designed minor for students interested in careers in business.
Students from the Schools of Engineering or Nursing should
contact the
Communication Department, to learn about minors that will complement their
programs of study.
