departments of the mass media, or in business organizations
performing advertising functions. In addition to the general studies

The outside concentration of nine to twelve units is designed to
complement and support the major. The area of concentration must be
outside of mass communication, and the student's major advisor must
approve the concentration area and the specific courses to be taken.
