Our PR Minor is designed for students who already have effective writing skills and a basic understanding of communication and/or business theory.
Your courses will include a heavy writing component. They will not serve as remedial courses – and can’t be substituted for required courses in your major.
Communication or Mass Media majors may not choose the PR Minor.
