This broad-based business minor can complement a specialty major in another business discipline or can be paired with majors from the sciences, arts, education, ministry, communications, and more.
The business department faculty have led companies and have real world experience. They bring practical experience and case studies to the classroom; it helps us learn from actual experience and not just the textbook. Business leader mentors come into our classroom and we can ask various questions about what we have learned and how we can apply it in the workplace.
