A minor in business administration is available to students not receiving a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration. This minor prepares students to advance in a broad range of careers in the public and private sectors. This minor pairs well with any non-business major where you want to add business skills to your field of expertise.
Program Highlights
-
Students who earn the minor in Business Administration will have general knowledge in several key areas within the business world, such as Accounting, Finance, Operations Logistics and Marketing. Our program strives to both challenge and equip students with the knowledge to successfully understand how each area within an organization depends on one another to create a successful business.
