Supply Chain Management Minor (for Non-SBA Majors only)

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 operations management is designed to advance students’ understanding of the challenges of value creation, and how to gain competitive advantages by transforming available resources into needed goods and services. This minor enhances students’ competencies and career opportunities in both manufacturing and the services sectors.
