Minor Requirements

Business, Education and Liberal Arts and Sciences majors may minor in Sociology. The minor consists of seven courses. Each minor is assigned an advisor who will help the student to select courses most suited to his or her major and career goals. Since management and marketing techniques are based on sociology, the minor is especially valuable to students interested in business careers.
