Minor in Management

About the Minor

The Management minor provides students with a foundational understanding of four essential managerial skills: (1) strategic insights and decision-making, (2) leadership, (3) innovation management, and (4) communication and collaboration. Through coursework combining theory and practice, students develop the abilities to collaborate effectively, communicate persuasively, and think strategically in addressing organizational challenges. This minor complements a variety of majors, offering a versatile skill set that enhances students’ technical expertise with managerial perspectives. It prepares students for diverse roles requiring business acumen and cross-functional insights, including client-facing positions in accounting, banking, business development, and marketing, as well as applied management roles in fields such as arts, engineering, healthcare, and family business. By adding managerial competencies, the minor broadens career opportunities and strengthens students' leadership potential across industries.

Admissions Requirements

Students are required to declare a major before declaring a minor. Students admitted directly into a specific major at the time of matriculation may declare a minor beginning in their second semester. All requirements for the minor must be completed either concurrently with or prior to the completion of the primary major requirements. This ensures that students fulfill the expectations of their primary field of study while completing any additional areas of academic specialization.
