Professional Minor
Stevenson’ s Professional Minors prepare you for additional career options, give you a competitive edge in the job market, and help further shape your university experience to meet your specific career goals.
PROFESSIONAL MINORS GIVE YOU AN EDGE
Each of our seven unique Professional Minors consists of four courses designed to provide foundational knowledge for an in-demand discipline or industry outside your major. The three examples below show how a Professional Minor can complement your major and help lay the foundation for your career success.
PROFESSIONAL MINORS
• Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development
• Event Planning
• Human Resources
• Management and Organizational Leadership
• Real Estate
• Software Design and Coding
• Web Design
• If you are an English major and want to be a technical writer or editor, you might choose the Software Design and Coding Professional Minor to both give you the knowledge you need, and help you stand out when applying for jobs in the tech industry.
• If you’ re considering starting a voiceover company, you could combine your Theatre and Media Performance major with the Entrepreneurship and Small Business Development Professional Minor.
• If you plan to enter the non-profit sector as a Communication Studies major, a Professional Minor in Event Planning or Web Design can help you gain knowledge and skills that give you an edge.
