Some students also choose to pursue a co-major in addition to their primary major or to add a second primary major to their course of study. Students should consult with their Kelley academic advisors and career coaches to determine whether/how a second or third major would match their interests or compliment their professional pursuits.
Non-Business Minor Courses
Kelley students are encouraged to pursue minors outside of the business school to further explore their interests and round out their college experiences. Kelley academic advisors and career coaches can help students evaluate how outside minors can add value to their degree.
