Students outside the business major may take business courses, and are not held to advanced business standing requirements, but they should first check with course instructors to see if they meet other prerequisites. The College of Business Academic Advising Office (COB/AAO) oversees the formal petition process that provides non-majors permission to take business courses, and COB/AAO should be the next step in getting permission after getting consent of the instructor.

A minor in entrepreneurship features business courses likely to be important to the creator of a new venture and/or the owner-operator of a growing business or family business. The minor includes exposure to entrepreneurs and entrepreneurship, creation of a new business concept, and formulation of a business plan that can serve as a springboard for a new venture.

Through exposure to all functional areas in business, students are afforded the opportunity to develop broad skills and knowledge. The business administration degree prepares students for a wide variety of career opportunities in business and government.
