Minor in Business - Program for Non-Business Majors

Offered in the Summer in Dallas and in the Fall at SMU-in-Taos.

The Cox Minor in Business curriculum is designed to provide non-business SMU students with a solid foundation in business basics to complement their primary areas of academic interest.  There are no GPA-based admission criteria for this program or its individual classes.

Classes are offered during the summer.

Earn a Minor in Business

The Minor in Business is an 18-credit-hour program in which students take five required three-hour courses and at least one three-hour elective.

Many students choose to complete the program in two summers.  These students take four courses during the first summer.  During the second summer, these students will take two classes which should allow them time to participate in a summer internship.  Students can also choose to pursue the Minor in Business over the course of several summers.

SMU-in-Taos

In the Fall 2012 semester, SMU-in-Taos will offer four courses from the Minor in Business program.  These courses will be:

MNO 3310

FINA 3310
FINA 3312

Individual classes for Non-Business Majors

A non-business major may also choose any of the individual classes within the Minor in Business program to augment their current course of study, even if they don't commit to the rest of the program.
