To help you with your current and future scheduling, a list for fall and spring terms has been provided below. It is extremely important to note that some of these courses are only offered once a year, which means paying particular attention to scheduling for future semesters. If you need one or more of these courses, make sure you don't miss the opportunity to sign up for them when they are offered.

First: Please note that 400-level business supporting course options have now been expanded!  It is no longer necessary to choose only from among MGMT 420, MGMT 440, ECON 410, or ECON 430. We have expanded this list to include other business 400-level courses, such as MKTG 327 or MKTG 410. If you have an alternative course in mind, first check with your adviser.

Second: At this time, those taking the Operations option are required to take SCM 445, 455, 460, and ECON 481. MIS 336, or other options, in consultation with the Program Chair, can be substituted for ECON 481.

Third: Please be aware that you need to complete MGMT 301 in the fall in order to fulfill the prerequisite for MGMT 331 and MGMT 341.

Fourth: You must complete FIN 301, SCM 301, and MKTG 301 to satisfy the prerequisites for MGMT 471W, which should be scheduled in your seventh or eighth semester.
