Add Value to Your Degree with a Minor or Additional Major
Adding a business minor to your current major is a great way to give yourself a competitive edge in your career and open the door to additional opportunities.
For example, if you are majoring in dance, a business minor will strengthen your degree and provide you with business skills to help you manage your dancing career or open your own studio. A business minor shows your potential employer that you have a foundation in business — a valuable asset in nearly any field.
Double majors are popular not only because they add professional value, but also because they cost less than two separate degrees. In most cases, the core courses count toward both degrees, making a double major much more efficient. In addition, a double major is advantageous because it adds a full skill set in your chosen career field.

About Double Majoring
Double majors are available for just about every bachelor's degree offered in the Rowland School of Business. Students can access the "Double Major Declaration" online or by contacting the Registrar's Office.
Students can declare double majors during their second semester, with classes beginning in their sophomore year.
The credits required in a double major depend on the majors you choose. Students should check with their academic advisor to determine the exact number needed for completion. Once you meet the requirements, both majors will be recorded on your diploma(s) and official transcripts.
