Business Finance Minor

The minor in business finance offers non-business/non-accounting majors an opportunity to expand their career opportunities by gaining a background in financial concepts, valuation and financial strategy. It provides students with the necessary tools to measure benefits and related costs that will enable them to make better business decisions. Problem-solving and quantitative skills that are widely used in business will enable students to work on special projects or management teams — opportunities that might not have been available had it not been for this minor. Eighteen units are required.

To enroll students must have completed a minimum of 32 units of college-level course work and have a minimum overall GPA of at least 2.75. Completion of this minor requires a minimum of 16 upper-division units in the minor and a GPA of 2.00 for the 18 units applied to the minor. Individuals in some majors who take 200-level courses to satisfy major requirements may be required to take additional electives to achieve the 16-unit upper-division minimum.
