Minor in Accounting

     These programs are designed to provide undergraduates with a 
     focused exposure to a particular area of business practice rather than 
     the broad exposure of the General Business Minor. As such, they 
     can provide professional and technical skills needed for entry into 
     specialized business employment for non-business majors or serve 
     as an alternative to a double major for business majors wishing 
     expertise in a second field.

     Please consult with the SFSU Bulletin for more detail.
