Both require MKTG 331 as a prerequisite. Special attention should be given to residency requirements (the minimum number of courses which must be taken at Geneseo). o A minimum of 50% of all courses required for the Economics major must be taken at Geneseo. o A minimum of 9 credit hours of 300 level ECON classes must be taken at Geneseo. o A minimum of 12 credits in the minor must be taken at Geneseo.
