BUS 325: Financial Management
BUS 440: Business Analytics
And you could also take random courses that sounded interesting to you.
Not sure why you think you have to fly through, when the actual goal is to take longer on purpose? The people that fly through are trying to keep their costs down, while you are trying to keep your costs high and take a full year. 2 courses per term = 12 courses = 2 minors (6 courses each), or 1 minor and then random interesting-to-you classes.
Again, UMPI is great for those who WANT to go quickly, but nothing says you HAVE to go quickly through the program.
Yes you are correct. The goal is to burn off my gi bill for the housing allowance which I'll save for my son's college. But if I could also get another degree out of it that wouldn't hurt either but that's second to the real goal.
I read each term 8 weeks. So 12 courses for that year would be fine I still need to know how much of my previous degree they will accept. With what you're saying, they would have to accept the whole degree for the general ed/electives. Which then would allow me the two minors. And yes those two classes would interest me. Still reading investing and trading books casually!
Lastly, do you get a degree for each minor completed? That would be really cool.
Thanks!
