Communication courses give a practical foundation in basic communication skills necessary for admittance to a senior college major program in journalism or mass communications. A variety of courses is offered including mass communications, reporting, editing, feature and editorial writing, photography, public relations, and advertising. The program also includes the active production of school publications.
As electives for non-Communication majors, these courses serve as outlets for creative talent and school service and enable students to become more discerning consumers of the mass media. The courses listed below are suggested for students who wish to receive an associate degree at Midland College and transfer to a four-year college. An official degree plan should be filed the semester before graduation; please contact the Dean whose name is listed above.
The courses listed for this area of study (linked below) are suggested for this degree. A + indicates course with a prerequisite or corequisite. However, courses that do not have a prerequisite do not have to be taken in order. For example, GOVT 2301 does not have to be taken before GOVT 2302 since 2301 is not a prerequisite for 2302. Nevertheless, the general sequence should still be followed. Part-time students may require more than four semesters to complete their degree or certificate.
