4 To be eligible to receive a BBA in Accountancy, Finance, Management, or Marketing or a BA in Economics, at least 9 upper level semester credit hours of the required coursework in the major field must be successfully completed at The University of Texas of the Permian Basin. Required coursework in the major field includes specific required courses in the major field as well as electives required in the major field. The discipline coordinator must approve all upper level transfer hours in the major. The College of Business and Engineering does not award double majors. Students desiring a double major should seek a second baccalaureate degree. Other general requirements depend on the degree and major. The Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board has approved the Field of Study Curriculum for Business. The following Texas Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS) courses are fully transferable to The University of Texas of the Permian Basin to meet the Field of Study Requirements for Business: ECON 2301 and ECON 2302, MATH 1325, COSC (BCIS) 1305 or 1405, SPCH 1311 (with appropriate content only) or SPCH 1315 or SPCH 1321 (preferred), ACCT 2301 or ACCT 2401, and ACCT 2302 or ACCT 2402 only. The MATH and SPCH classes also meet General Education requirements. Students who have not fulfilled the mathematics requirement of the Business Field of Study but who have at least three hours of college credit for a college-level mathematics course may take a Mathematics Placement Test for entry into MATH Students passing the placement test may take MATH 1325; otherwise students must take the sequence MATH 1324 and MATH Grade Requirements Students must earn a grade of C or better in all courses taught in the major for Accountancy, Finance, Management, Marketing, Economics, Industrial Technology, including the BAAS degree, and Mechanical Engineering. The College of Business and Engineering has additional grade policies that apply to the BBA degrees. 1. The College of Business and Engineering requires a grade point average of 2.25 in the Lower Level Business Common Core Courses (or equivalent). The Lower Level Business Common Core consists of the following eleven courses: two courses in Mathematical Analysis (MATH 1324/1325 or MATH 2412/2413), two courses in English (ENGL 1301/1302), Speech (COMM 1315 or 1321), Computer Literacy (COSC 1335), two courses in Accounting (ACCT 2301/2302), one course in statistics (MNGT 2342), and two courses in Economics (ECON 2301/2302). 2. Students must achieve a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 on all Upper Level Business Common Core and business elective courses to meet degree requirements. 3. Students majoring in Finance must earn a C or better in ECON 3322, FINA 3320, and any FINA course taken as an elective to meet degree requirements. General Prerequisites to Upper Division Business Courses Students Who Choose Undeclared Business as Their Major The purpose of an Undeclared Business major is to permit students who are interested in a business major to enroll in Upper Level Business Core Courses and hence explore their options before declaring a major. Students who choose Undeclared Business as their major may not take upper level coursework beyond the Upper Level Business Common Core until they have enrolled in a business major of Accountancy, Finance, Management, or Marketing. The advisor assigned by the Success Center to the College of Business and Engineering will advise an Undeclared Business major. University of Texas of the Permian Basin Undergraduate Catalog 329

5 Students Intending to Minor in a Business Discipline A student majoring in another field outside the College of Business and Engineering may elect to minor in Business, Accountancy, Finance, Management, Marketing or Entrepreneurship by completing credit hours in the designated minor. Each minor includes at least nine hours of upper division business courses. Students pursuing a minor in a business field may take upper division business courses beyond the list of open business classes below upon completion of 54 credit hours in their major degree plan including ENGL 1301 and 1302 and speech, a mathematics sequence, and computer literacy as required in their major as well as any specific course prerequisites. Business Course Availability for Students not Pursuing a Business Major or Minor The business majors in the College of Business and Engineering are Accountancy, Finance, Management, and Marketing. Upper division business courses are restricted to business majors and pre-majors, business minors, Industrial Technology (ITEC) majors and minors, Information Systems majors and minors, and students who meet the entrance requirements for being a business major or business minor. Non-business majors, including business minors, may take no more than 25% of their undergraduate program in business. This means, for example, that a student with a degree plan consisting of 120 credit hours may not take more than 30 credit hours of business courses (Accounting, Finance, Management and Marketing).
