About the Undergraduate Minor in Emerging Markets
The 16-credit minor in emerging markets introduces students to the challenges and opportunities that face companies in countries that are rapidly developing into more developed world economies. Students have an opportunity to combine coursework that explores the dynamics of conducting business and generating innovations in emerging markets with a summer field project on-site in an area of the world where markets are rapidly developing.
This interdisciplinary minor is open to business and non-business majors.
The EM minor has been a unique opportunity for me to dive into my passions for world politics, economics, & business—all within one interdisciplinary program. Its courses have broadened my understanding of the global economy, giving me a holistic perspective that I haven't found anywhere else… Sebastian Curiel, CSSH ‘27
