Communication Minor


Introduction

Please click here  to see Communication department information.

Knowledge in most professional settings means little unless it can be communicated effectively. The minor in communication is designed to provide students who are not communication majors with knowledge and skills in communication that are useful in any discipline or profession.

These Minor requirements are subject to periodic revision by the academic department, and the College reserves the right to make exceptions and substitutions as judged necessary in individual cases. Therefore, the College strongly urges students to consult regularly with their Minor advisor and CLAS advisor to confirm the best plans of study before finalizing them.
