Public Relations Minor


The minor in public relations situates professional practice within a context of the broader communication studies discipline. Interdisciplinary in nature, the minor exposes students to multiple conceptual frameworks while emphasizing applied skills.

Admission


Admission to the minor is competitive and is limited. To be admitted to the minor, students must have an overall GPA of 3.0 and score competitively on a writing skills test. Students should be aware that completing courses in the minor sequence does not guarantee admission into the minor.
