The Western Illinois University School of Management and Marketing, in the College of Business and Technology, will introduce a new Sustainable Business minor to be offered on the Macomb and Quad Cities campuses for Fall 2022. This minor provides a new opportunity for students to focus their degree during their academic career.
"This new minor demonstrates our promise to continue to enhance education and the growing needs of our students within this field," said School of Management and Marketing Professor Gordon Rands.
WIU's Sustainable Business minor will provide a new take for interested students. This focus minor requires courses including Environment 201, Economics 232, Agriculture 220, Agricultural Economics/Finance 430, Management 483 and Environment 401.
Students interested in a sustainability focused independent study course within their major can seek approval from the major faculty, chair and the Sustainable Business minor advisor. In addition, sustainability focused honors or other courses can be approved by the advisor on a substitution basis.
