Bachelor of Science Degree Requirements
Minor in Accounting
A minor consists of at least 15 semester credits, with no fewer than nine credits at the 300 level or higher. A student cannot major and minor in the same field or acquire a minor that is not allowed by the degree program. In programs that require a minor, courses may not be used to fulfill both the major and minor requirements. Courses used to fulfill general education requirements, however, may be counted toward the minor. Students are encouraged to contact the department offering the minor for advising. A student may specify one completed minor on the graduation application to be recorded in his/her academic record. Specific requirements are detailed below.
Note: Accounting Students are not required to complete a
