A minor in communication from Saint Louis University allows students to complement another major with the essential knowledge and skills that the study of communication provides.
In this way, students increase their versatility, adding several key abilities: analyzing, understanding and solving problems; communicating and connecting in a diverse world; and utilizing technology in effective and ethical ways. Working with their faculty mentor, students are allowed to develop a personally tailored program of study for their minor that fits their individual goals and interests.

If the student's GPA in the minor does not reach 2.00 after two additional semesters, the department may dismiss the student from the program.
Students can complete all or part of the communication minor at SLU’s campus in Madrid.
