Minor in International Business
AN INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MINOR IS THE PERFECT COMPANION
If you are an undergraduate business student majoring in Accounting, CIS, Finance, Management or Marketing, or if you are majoring in Liberal Arts, an International-Business Minor will enhance your employability. In today’s market-place, graduates who combine strong professional skills with international competence are in demand. Here in New York, the most global city of all, opportunities for those who blend the two are particularly large.
It’s simple. It involves taking only three courses. Since the courses that qualify you for one of these minors are 3000 and 4000 level, you can’t take them until you are a junior. But even if you are a sophomore or a freshman, you need to plan now. Some of those courses have prerequisites or corequisites, and not all courses are given every term. Since Baruch students can only take a limited number of free electives, it’s important to start early and choose your electives carefully--first to fulfill prerequisites and then for the corequisites and courses for the Minor in International Business.
IF YOU’RE MAJORING IN BUSINESS: To graduate with a BBA, you will have to take most of the prerequisites for the international minor anyway. Thus, all you have to do is make sure that when you’re a junior and a senior, you take as electives the remaining prerequisites and corequisites and the three courses that will qualify you for this minor.
IF YOU’RE MAJORING IN LIBERAL ARTS: Certain required courses for the minor (ECO 1001 and 1002, for example) also meet the requirements for a degree in Liberal Arts. You can design a minor in International Business that involves one or two prerequisites/corequistites as well as the three courses in the minor itself.
