Double Majors

Students completing the Bachelor of Management, Post-Diploma Bachelor of Management, Bachelor of Management as a Second Degree and Combined Bachelor of Arts/Bachelor of Management and Bachelor of Science/Bachelor of Management programs may declare and complete two established majors for their program.

Admission Requirements

Students interested in a second major should begin their studies in a single major and apply for the second major at a later date. In addition to the admission requirements for the second major (see Admission), students must also meet the following requirement in order to be approved for the declaration of a second major:

a.Students must take one Dhillon School of Business course in their desired second major (does not include core courses) at the University of Lethbridge, with a minimum grade of ‘B’. Students adding one of the non-management majors (i.e.Computer Science, Economics, or Political Science) must take one of their respective major courses CPSC, ECON, or POLI with a minimum grade of ‘B’.

Double majors can only be formed by successfully completing all requirements for both established single disciplinary majors.

General Management majors are ineligible for double major designation. Because all other possible combinations of single disciplinary majors are eligible for double major designation by a student, the School cannot guarantee that course sequencing and timetables will accommodate all double major combinations within eight consecutive regular terms. Substitutions will not be made when there are time conflicts for courses between the majors.

The School will allow double counting of courses between majors. Students choosing to complete two majors may need to complete more than the minimum 40 courses for the degree depending on the choice of majors.

Students who have completed the requirements for two majors at the time of graduation without having previously declared a second major may still apply to convocate with both majors.

Interested students are encouraged to consult with Dhillon School of Business academic advisors.
