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).

Taxation is a dynamic field with numerous opportunities for students who are not business majors.  This minor provides students with in-depth knowledge and research skills in the specialty area of taxation.  Students interested in working for a government agency such as the IRS and/or planning on attending law school are encouraged to obtain advanced coursework in tax law.

Curriculum


Total Credits: 18


*Non-SBA students who complete FIN 303    in addition to all of the above requirements will also meet the requirements for an accounting minor. However, students can only be awarded one minor (accounting or taxation) based upon what is submitted when the minor is declared. 

** Although ACCT 405 is not a prerequisite for any of the undergraduate tax courses, students are highly recommended to complete ACCT 405  first.
