Business Information Technology Minor

Students of the Business Information Technology (BIT) minor program focus on enhancing their soft IT skills, such as technological, problem-solving, communication, collaborative and team-based skills, which are useful to developing IT-enabled solutions.  These solutions are purposed to support strategies and realize objectives that make organizations and businesses thrive in competitive environments.  This minor program is offered for both COB and non-COB major programs of the university.

The BIT minor complements many majors offered at the university.  This minor will give students opportunities to learn IT skills and the use of tools that will allow them to translate many business functions learned from their respective majors into technology functions, and vice-versa.  As such, acquiring such skills positions students to better articulate their business function's IT needs. Students of the minor will learn how to engage in IT projects, analyze IT-driven business processes, and provide IT-centric recommendations.
