Sport Management Minor (for Non-SBA Majors only)


Business Minors for Majors Outside of SBA


Students who are majoring outside the School of Business Administration Business Programs may benefit from an opportunity to take a series of courses in business to enhance their academic programs. To provide this option, the School of Business Administration (SBA) has approved a series of structured minor programs that provide a sequence of courses that will enrich other disciplines, can be monitored by the administrative staff, and meet AACSB guidelines.

Students outside the School of Business Administration Business Programs may not take more than 24 credits in business (excluding EC 101  and EC 202 , which count toward the general education requirement).

Students working toward a minor in business must take at least 15 credits from the School of Business Administration  Business Programs(residency requirement).

The business of sports has become a major part of both our local economy and the national economy. A minor in sport management prepares students for a career in professional, intercollegiate, and interscholastic sports, and in the various industries that serve them. Courses in this program enable students to develop skills in the sales and marketing of sports programs and products, as well as the planning and management of sports events and recreation facilities. Students will also develop an understanding of the economics and legal aspects of sports.
