The degree of Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) may be conferred upon a student by recommendation of the faculty and upon the satisfactory completion of a minimum of 123 semester hours of credit with a minimum cumulative GPA of 2.3 overall and in the major. A minimum of 123 credit hours will be earned in the following four requirement categories:
Fox School of Business and Management Requirements
Lower Division Foundation Requirements
Upper Division Foundation Requirements (limited to juniors and seniors)
Major Requirements
Twelve business courses (33 s.h.) and eight non-business courses (25 s.h.) are required as part of the lower and upper division foundation requirements for the BBA program. In addition, a minimum of ten business courses must be completed in the major, which is comprised of 1) required major courses, 2) one information technology course, 3) an international course, 4) one 200+ Economics course, 5) business electives, and 6) a course on Ethics, Business and Society. The Ethics course is required of all freshmen admitted fall 2003 and after. Transfer students admitted fall 2005 and after will also be required to complete this course. Some courses in the major may satisfy more than one of these six components.
NOTE: Many upper division foundation courses and major courses have prerequisites. Some of these prerequisites also include grade requirements. Students are required to meet all prerequisites. The School reserves the right to de-enroll students from courses when prerequisites have not been met. Prerequisites will be strictly enforced. The majority of the major course work, as well as all prerequisites, must be completed prior to taking the capstone course for the major. Students not meeting the requirements for the courses they enroll in may be de-enrolled from those courses.
