New Business and Interdisciplinary Minors available beginning Fall 2013
Business Foundations (for non-business majors)
Requirements: A 2.0 cumulative GPA at UH and junior standing.
The Business Foundations minor is designed to provide non-business majors with the foundation of business in accounting and computer literacy, and course selections relating to personal finance, professional selling and entrepreneurship with an overview of business, from a small business and a corporate perspective, to international business and globalization. In GENB 3301, students will learn how to leverage a non-business major in a business environment. This minor will replace the Global Business minor and the International Area Studies minor.
Energy and Sustainability
(an interdisciplinary minor for business and non-business majors)
Requirements: Junior standing and a 2.5 cumulative GPA on 15 or more hours at UH.
The Energy and Sustainability minor is designed to provide both business and non-business majors with an interdisciplinary approach to broad issues regarding energy and sustainability, with a common introductory course and capstone course. Topics would include existing, transitional, and alternative energy resources; and energy and sustainability from the perspectives of economics and business, architecture and design, public policy, and education. The administration of this minor is through Bauer College, but is an interdisciplinary collaboration with other colleges and departments across campus under the direction of Dr. Joe Pratt.
