What is the special requirement for the advertising or PR major?

Special courses will broaden your background and allow you to sample a variety of upper-level courses. To meet the special requirement, a student takes 12 hours of 300- and/or 400-level courses in any areas of study outside of APR, JN, MC, TCF and the student’s minor. A student having a second major or minor may use 300- and/or 400-level course hours from that second major or minor to double-satisfy hours in the special requirement. Otherwise, special requirement courses must go beyond coursework required for Core or the minor. When choosing special requirement courses, the student should remember that at least 65 hours of the total 124 hours required for the degree must be in liberal arts and sciences courses (such as courses in the College of Arts and Sciences, communication studies, and economics). Check for prerequisites before registering for these courses.
