Secondary Emphases in ABE
The secondary emphasis is for use by
students with POEs in other departments. We do not allow a
student with a POE in ABE to use one of our own secondary emphases, e.g. Accounting w/secondary emphasis in Finance.
The secondary emphasis is shown on the POE
forms using the words “w/secondary emphasis in” (e.g., Communications
w/secondary emphasis in Marketing). We suggest that using “and” to connect two
disciplines – e.g., Communications and Marketing – implies that the student is
a “dual major” and has completed the designated POE in Marketing and sufficient
work in the other discipline that a faculty member of that department would
approve the POE.
Note that prerequisites for 300/400
courses will NOT automatically be waived.

not go abroad. Please seek the advice of an ABE faculty member.
