The three undergraduate majors currently offered by the School of
Communication and Information (SC&I) are communication, information
technology and informatics, and journalism and media studies. Each major
leads to the bachelor of arts degree. All students must satisfy the
premajor requirements and the requirements of their major as well as
the academic requirements of the four-year school through which they
were admitted to the university. Most SC&I majors are based in
the School of Arts and Sciences or the School of Environmental and
Biological Sciences, but students from schools such as Mason Gross
School of the Arts, Rutgers Business School-Newark and New Brunswick, and
the School of Nursing may choose a second major at SC&I. Students
maintain their affiliation with their undergraduate school while
enrolled at the School of Communication and Information.
The school offers two minors: digital communication, information, and media; gender and media. These are open
to students from all Rutgers schools. Students should check with their
four-year school to determine if the minor fulfills requirements for
that school or will count as elective credits. (New Brunswick School of
Arts and Sciences students may use the either program to fulfill their minor requirement.)
Students are urged to check the School of Communication and Information website (http://comminfo.rutgers.edu) for the latest requirements and course offerings. The school reserves
the right, for any reason, to change or modify any course or program
listed.
