Business Communications fulfill Professional Business + GE Requirement? - BrendaB - 08-28-2020
Will the Business Communication course fulfill BOTH the General Education Oral Communication requirement and the Professional Business Requirement for BSBA Degree?
Or do I need to take both Speech and Business Communications?

Business communication is not oral communication. Business courses are rarely considered a gen ed. Business Stats is the only one I've seen come in as a gen ed. Once in a blue moon a school will accept it as a math class, but that's not usual.
On TESU:
Oral Communication
COM-209: Public Speaking
ENG-202: Technical Communication

Thank you for the info.

At TESU, you need a single course for each requirement, so even if you had a syllabus that specifically said there was oral comm required in the business comm course, you couldn't use it to fulfill both requirements. You'd want it for the Business Comm requirement.
There are lots of options to do the oral comm requirement though; public speaking, or other courses that will count are available everywhere.
