Business Minors for Majors Outside of SBA Business Programs

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).

A minor in management gives students the ability to understand, deal with, and manage people, processes, and projects. Skills in these areas are critical for job success and enable students to advance into management ranks in their chosen fields. Management competencies are in great demand by employers, and students who develop them will be well positioned to perform effectively in their jobs and advance their careers.
