MINOR PROGRAMS
Undergraduate Programs
COBM Home Page

The College offers minor programs in Accounting, Finance, International Business, Management, and Marketing.

The prerequisites for any minor are the same as those for a major: completing eight Foundation courses with a grade point average of 2.5 or higher and a grade of "C' or better in each course, and a minimum 2.0 cumulative grade point average for all course work at NEIU.

A course taken for Foundation or major credit cannot also be counted toward a minor (i.e., the College does not permit double-counting).
