The 18-credit Communication Minor is flexible to the student's needs. Three courses are required: CMST 111 Introduction to Communication, CMST 126 Introduction to Mass Media, and CMST 250 Analysis of Communication Theory. The remaining three courses allow the student to take some preliminary coursework in one of the department's four concentrations: Broadcasting, Media Studies, Public Relations, or Public Communication and Advocacy. This minor offers other majors the opportunity to gain fundamental communication concepts and skills in one of the concentrations above.
