Managers are needed in every organization and in every profession.
By gaining an understanding of the basic functional areas of management, you'll have a competitive advantage in the marketplace and throughout your career.
The minor in management — an eight-course curriculum drawn from core courses in the School of Management's existing undergraduate majors — is available to undergraduate students from any major outside the School of Management. It provides a foundation in the basic language and principles of business and complements advanced study in engineering, social science, health-related professions and other undergraduate majors.
"Liberal arts and social science majors are missing out on something vital to their futures: Business 101."
—The Chronicle of Higher Education
