About the Program
This minor is only available for non-Business students.
Gain the skills required to find and recruit employees, train staff, create an inclusive and diverse workplace, negotiate salaries, compensation, and work with labor leaders and unions.
Focus of Study
The General Business Minor is intended for non-business students wishing to get a taste of different aspects of the business world. Business principles are applicable across many disciplines. Everyone at some point in their life will work in a setting where a sound business decision will need to be made or will be in the position to manage others. This minor will allow you to draw on this knowledge to make a sound decision.
Program Requirements
The College of Business recommends all undergraduate students consider a business minor because no matter your major, you will likely be working in a business! Our minor for non-business students is broken into two parts - a business core curriculum (3 courses) that provides a base knowledge in business and then four subject-specific courses that allow students a deeper dive on a specific business discipline - giving students basic business knowledge as well as specialized business knowledge that can give them a competitive edge in the workplace.
To declare the business minor, students must have a 2.7 cumulative CU GPA and have successfully passed ENGL 1310 and one college level math course (MATH 1040 is the lowest level math course accepted for this requirement).
