MINORS

Students who wish to study a subject of interest in greater depth may choose to pursue a minor. Minors generally require six to eight courses in a particular field of study. A carefully planned program of study allows a Wharton student to complete a minor within the Wharton curriculum, capitalizing on potential overlap with General Education, Non-Business Elective, and Unrestricted Elective requirements. Students are encouraged to begin planning as early as possible to ensure the minor can be completed in a timely manner and without taking extra courses.

Wharton students have the option of pursuing either a departmental minor or a university minor. Please click on the links to access more information about both types of minors.
