Undergraduate Business Minor Program

Business Pathways

The Business Pathways courses may count up to nine hours as electives toward the Undergraduate Business Minor. No more than one BUSA 3841 directed study may be counted toward fulfillment of the BUS electives requirement. Picking a pathway is not required and will not show up on your transcript. Instead, students are encouraged to pursue a pathway when it supports their academic interests.

Electives courses may have prerequisites; students should check the course catalog to confirm.
