In our world of media and electronics, there is still a significant need for personal, human communication skills that are the building blocks of strong relationships. Students learn the principles of good verbal and nonverbal communication skills in professional and personal environments. The Applied Communication minor is similar to the traditional speech minor, but with updated coursework that would complement many majors.

A minor is a secondary field of interest that is meant to complement your academic major. While your major is chosen for your intended career choice, your minor may be something you pursue for your personal interest or to augment your major.
