Business Administration Minor Overview

The business administration minor provides you with a basic understanding of key concepts underlying business operations and strategies. Whether you plan to run your own business, work as a manager, or start a new career, you want to understand the practice of business. Our business administration minor will provide you with an enhanced competency to engage in successful business practices while emphasizing practical knowledge along with business theory. You'll take challenging, engaging business courses that provide a real-world perspective, while developing marketable business administration skills that employers seek in new hires. You will attend small, student-centered classes and receive personalized attention from caring faculty members.

The Romain College of Business has earned accreditation from AACSB, which is considered the "gold standard" for business accreditation. Only 5.7% of business schools, globally, have earned that accreditation. Achieving accreditation is a multi-year process of rigorous internal focus, engagement with an AACSB-assigned mentor and peer-reviewed evaluation. Schools must develop and implement a plan to align with accreditation standards. These standards require excellence in areas relating to strategic management and innovation; student, faculty, and staff as active participants; learning and teaching; and academic and professional engagement.
