Journalism in the Public Interest
Academic Bulletin
The minor requires a minimum of 20 semester credit hours. Students must have at least a 2.0 GPA in the minor. The minor requires: two applied journalism courses (JOURN 100 and 300); two journalism synthesis courses (JOURN 200 and 550); and a third applied journalism course or a practicum (JOURN 320 or JOURN 501 and 502). Because this minor is interdivisional, students may complete any Major to satisfy the college requirement that the Major and minor be in different divisions.
