Global Business, Economics, and Social Impact Minor

The Global Business, Economics, and Social Impact Minor provides students with the opportunity to integrate global business knowledge, cultural competency, and ethical frameworks into their liberal arts education.

This interdisciplinary minor prepares students to navigate an increasingly interconnected world by developing analytical, cross-cultural, and socially responsible perspectives that complement any major. Through coursework and experiential learning, students gain the tools needed to understand global markets, assess the social implications of economic and business decisions, and engage meaningfully in international and multicultural environments.

Through coursework, language study, and hands-on opportunities, students will develop the ability to:

• Analyze global economic and business systems through multiple cultural and ethical lenses
• Apply business and economic concepts to contemporary global and social impact challenges
• Communicate effectively across cultural contexts
• Assess the ethical and social implications of global business decisions
• Navigate and operate within international organizations, markets, and communities

Declarations are accepted beginning in the sophomore year.
