A broad liberal arts education—which includes a general education component (the Morse Academic Plan) and a major in a liberal arts discipline or interdisciplinary field—provides a sound foundation for many careers in business. The skills and perspectives of the liberal arts—in areas such as analysis and communication—are practical as well as personally enriching. Liberal arts students, however, can considerably enhance their preparedness for business by also completing a small number of more specific courses. In consultation with the Undergraduate College of the Leonard N. Stern School of Business, the College of Arts and Science (CAS) has identified a set of such courses. These courses—some offered by CAS and some by Stern—are incorporated in the minor in business studies. By completing this CAS minor, students acquire core knowledge and quantitative skills that are invaluable assets for success in the business professions. Intended especially for students interested in the humanities, the minor in business studies is administered by the college office. Students considering the minor should consult with the business studies adviser in the College Preprofessional Advising Office at Silver Center, 100 Washington Square East, Room 901; 212-998-8160. This person’s responsibilities include advising prospective and declared minors, evaluating the applicability of transfer credit, approving course substitutions when warranted, and meeting with Stern on matters of CAS/Stern articulation.
