BS in Communications
The department provides a career-oriented curriculum based on a liberal arts framework. The student will complete 39 hours of course work in communications. It is strongly recommended that students also take MMC 1004 Media Literacy and SPC 2060 Fundamentals of Speech. All stu-
dents must be able to type. Prerequisite courses should be
taken in the freshman and sophomore years; a limited number of Major Requirement and Major Elective courses may be taken in the second semester of the sophomore year.
MMC 3105 Advanced Writing for the Media: High demand limits the number of times a student may take MMC 3105. Students may take this course no more than two times.
MMC 4975 Senior Project: The Communications faculty
firmly believes that all mass communications students should engage in a professional internship that provides a signifi- cant, realistic component to the student’s education. The focus of the internship is not in isolation, but in the larger frame- work of the student’s education. Credit for such professional experience should be noted on the transcript. Academic credit for this course is limited to one three-hour course.
Students must have completed 3 of the courses listed under Major Electives in their track before engaging in a profes- sional internship and enrolling in Senior Projects.
The Communications faculty recognizes that there may be exceptional cases that prevent a student from participating in a professional internship. It is assumed, however, that exceptions to the internship will be extremely rare and only after the student has submitted their request and justification
in writing.
Option 1: A substantial research paper.
Option 2: A major project in the student’s field that allows
the faculty to fully evaluate the student’s skills.
Faculty Contact: Students who plan to enroll in Senior Projects should contact the instructor for the course three or more weeks before registration.
Please be aware of all prerequisites before enrolling in a course. Prerequisites are enforced.
Students may not intern at their place of employment.
The Communications office should be notified in advance if the first day of class in a given semester or summer session will be missed. Failure to do so will forfeit your place in that class.
