The first students who are eligible for the minor are sophomores and juniors who plan on finishing the minor in May 2015, according to Amy Tabor, director of the business minor program.
"It is very exciting to see the energy surrounding the new business minor, from the investment that Leeds is providing this program to the diverse students who are taking advantage of the opportunity," said Tabor.
