The Minor

 

 


(18 hours)
Majors in other department often find the Communication minor a valuable addition. Minor requirements include the following:

CN 101 Principles & Practices of Human Communication (3)
CN 150 Public Speaking (3)
CN 300 Organizational
Communication (3)

9 hours from one of the three emphases, one of which must be the required emphasis course

Minor forms are to be filed in the CN department, and signed by the chair when the requirements have been met.

Debate/Forensics
Washburn has a long-distinguished competitive debate program. Parliamentary debate and individual events are the current focus of the program. Scholarships are available.

Internships
Internships are granted to only the most qualified and academically prepared student. The student who has achieved maximum benefit from classroom experiences can then apply for 1-3 hours of internship credit. Guided by both the advisor and the intern's supervisor, students might be placed in a work setting such as a bank, non-profit agency, personnel department, governmental office, or political office for on-the-job experience.
