Second minor?
#1
I thought I remembered someone adding an additional minor to their BA? Did I make that up lol! If you decided to do it what degree did you go for and how many additional classes did you have to take?

I’m on my last leg of my BA Business Admin management & leadership degree and I’m wondering if I could add a project management concentration or potentially a second degree.

I know a couple of people here have added another minor/concentration to their degree! How many additional classes you need depends on the minor/concentration.

You can add minors. You just need to ask your advisor to add it and complete the requirements for the minor. Do you want the PM minor or concentration? They're 2 different things. A second concentration will not create a second degree. You're still complete the BA Business Admin but with 2 concentrations.

I was leaning towards the concentration but is it possible to get the BLS in project management and the BA? Or another BLS with the BA?

You'll need to speak to Jessica about adding the BLS. I am not sure you can complete them together. For a second degree, you need to complete an additional 30 credits at UMPI. Keep that in mind. It's not just completing the minor. The BLS has minors. The BA has concentrations. The concentrations require more courses than the minors.

You won't get a BLS in Project Management. The BLS is the Bachelor's of Liberal Studies. The degree would be a Bachelor's of Liberal Studies with a minor in Project Management.

I decided I’m going to leave it as is and just go ahead with what I have Smile I’ve already met all my requirements for graduation and I’ll save my energy to start my MBA journey next year. Thank you all for the info.

A second degree is more work. I'm doing it right now. I have to complete an additional 30 credits besides what I have already completed for my BLS.
