Additional Information and Notes

Depending on the student’s major, only two of the above courses can be substituted with other courses in the Bertolon School of Business. This will be determined after consultation with the Coordinator of the Business Administration minor and the relevant Department Chairperson. Students must formally seek admission to the minor by requesting approval from their major Department Chairperson and the Coordinator of the Business Administration minor. (Students are admitted on a seat available basis; selection is determined by cumulative academic average.) Many of the upper level courses have prerequisites of Mathematics, Economics, Psychology and Sociology; therefore, students should be selected for Business Administration minors with reasonable care by their advisors and must be approved by the Bertolon School of Business.

If ECO202 Microeconomics is required for a student’s major, this course can be used to fulfill the requirements both for that major and for business administration minor as well.
