A wide selection of minors in business gives students the chance to develop even more valuable skills to complement their major studies.
Minors for Bachelor of Science (BS) in Accounting Students
The following minors are designed for students in the BS in Accounting program. Keep in mind that your minor can only overlap 2 courses with your major, and for many minors listed below the courses that overlap with your Business major are listed first. You need at least four additional courses to minor within the School of Business.
Students in the Busch School of Business may also minor in other schools at the University. Please see the list of all Catholic University minors.
Please note: Students in the School of Business are required to receive a C- or better in all courses.
