Effective Fall 2014
The Minor in Business is designed for students who would like to complement their undergraduate major with business knowledge. The curriculum will enable students to integrate business concepts, skills, and perspectives into their declared majors and will add value to many technical and non-technical majors across campus. Facilities, clubs, corporate visits, career fairs, and career-prep seminars will all be open to minors.
Admissions. In order to declare the Minor in Business and have the minor listed on the official University record, students must first be admitted to the minor via a competitive application process. There is one admission cycle each year, and the Ross School plans to admit 100 students into the Minor in each of the first two years.
To be eligible to apply for admission to the minor, students must successfully complete the prerequisites and have junior standing or above by the end of the Winter term in which they apply. The application will be available in April and due in May for Fall Term admission. Following a pre-screening of applicants to verify eligibility, admission decisions will be based on a holistic review of the application form, transcript, and 1-2 essays. Ross Undergraduate Admissions will pay particular attention to applications that explicitly and thoughtfully articulate why students are interested in the minor as a companion to their major.
Summary of Requirements. The Minor in Business curriculum consists of 15 credits and has flexible core and elective components; in addition, students must complete Microeconomics by graduation. Eligible courses taken prior to acceptance to the minor can be used to satisfy the 15-credit requirement. An overall grade point average of 2.0 or above within the minor must be achieved; and, all courses used to meet minor requirements must be elected both for credit and for a grade. At least 15 credits with a minimum of five courses (elective course credit-loads vary) to be chosen from core requirements and electives.

Co-Requisite that must be completed prior to Graduation: ECON 101 Microeconomics (4).
