Specifics regarding dual degrees with Sport Management and Business appear below. For more general information about dual degrees, including overall dual degree requirements and application procedures, please refer to Ross's web pages for Prospective Students, Applicants, and Declared Dual Degree Students.
I. Degree Requirements
Complete all BBA degree requirements, including:
-
45 Bus Ad credits (minimum), including core, electives, and LHC 305 or LHC 306
-
54 non-Bus Ad credits
-
Three of the following four requirements:
- Humanities Distribution (HU): 9 credits
- Natural Sciences (NS) and/or Mathematical and Symbolic Analysis (MSA): 9 credits
- Social Sciences (SS): 9 credits (excluding Econ 101 & 102)
- Foreign Language Proficiency: Fourth-term proficiency in a foreign language is determined by successful completion of a proficiency examination administered by U-M, or by completion of a fourth-semester college-level foreign language course. AP course work which meets fourth-term proficiency fulfills this requirement. See the LSA Bulletin for further details.
-
120 total credits (minimum) of coursework considered acceptable for BBA degree credit. This may include credits from Bus Ad courses, LSA courses and School of Kinesiology courses indicated on the approved list found in the BBA Bulletin. School of Kinesiology classes not on the approved list are excluded from this total.
Note: School of Kinesiology courses that are not on the approved list in the BBA Bulletin may be taken by non-dual degree students on a "not for credit" basis. Students who declare, and then graduate, as Kinesiology/BBA dual degree students may, however, take these classes for credit. While these courses will not count towards the 120 credits of coursework considered acceptable for BBA degree credit, they will count towards the 150 total credits required for the dual degrees. In the event that the dual degrees are discontinued by dropping the Sport Management degree, any credits earned from these classes will be revoked since they are not accepted for the BBA degree.
Complete all Sport Management degree requirements, including:
- Prerequisite courses
- Sport Management required courses
- Sport Management electives
- Distribution courses
Note: For more information on Sport Management requirements, please see a sample 5 year plan or contact a Sport Management advisor.
