All students are limited to two minors. Non-business majors are limited to one business minor.
Students officially accepted into the Weissman School of Arts and Sciences or the Marxe School of International and Public Affairs who wish to take business courses may do so by declaring a business minor.
Before declaring the business minor, students must complete BUS 2000 (or former BUS 1000/1001/1011). Eligibility to declare such a minor is restricted to students who have an overall GPA of 2.0 or more at the time they declare the minor. To be awarded the minor, students must have a GPA of 2.0 or more in the courses included in the minor. Courses that apply to the minor may not be used for any other requirement. A business minor does not fulfill the Pathways College Options liberal arts minor requirement.
*Keep in mind that most courses have pre-/co-requisites.
Required course: BUS 2000 (or former BUS 1000/1001/1011)
