Undergraduate Minor Options
The same discipline may not be used to satisfy the major and the minor (i.e. English major and English minor does not make a degree.) If a course is a requirement of both the major and the minor, a student may use the course to meet both content requirements but will not receive double credit and will need advisor approval for a course substitution. A minimum of six credits must be taken at UAS.

PROFESSIONAL COMMUNICATION
This minor is designed to provide students with a broad overview of the different channels of communication with which they will be expected to have some familiarity and skill for most professional work environments. Furthermore, students' reading, research, writing, speaking, computer literacy, professional behavior, and critical thinking skills will be enhanced.
