Removal from Major, Minor, or Area of Specialization: The School of Business follows the procedures as outlined in Section XIV.D of the Academic Regulations and Policies portion of this Catalogue. The School of Business defines "attempts" as completing a course with a grade other than an "I," "W," or "AU."
The curricula of the School of Business consists essentially of four parts: 1) the Liberal Studies Requirements; 2) the basic business common professional component courses in Business Administration; 3) professional courses for specialization in Accounting, Business Administration, Management, or Marketing; and 4) a support course in Computer Science and Mathematics.
The Liberal Studies Requirements are described elsewhere in this Catalogue. The Social Science requirement of the Liberal Studies Requirements is normally met by choosing either ECO 200 or POS 101. Business students, however, must take ECO 201 in place of ECO 200 or POS 101.
The curriculum provides students with a general exposure to the primary areas of accounting. Students completing the curriculum are eligible to begin careers in professional accounting.*
