Some of these subjects may be taken as part of the distribution of major requirements for the B.A. or B.S., while those given in the Lubin School of Business may be taken as electives. Students interested in foreign languages should be particularly aware of expanding opportunities in international business. Students are encouraged to contact their pre-professional advisor. However, undergraduates should acquire proficiency in written and spoken English, develop the ability to master rapidly large quantities of material, sharpen powers of logical analysis and increase capacity for independent work. Education minors are available with many arts and sciences programs.
Electives provide ample opportunity for students to further enhance their preparation.
Pace undergraduate students in their senior year who have a minimum cumulative quality point average of 3.25 may petition to register for a graduate course for which they meet the prerequisites. Students must receive written permission from the undergraduate dean of the school in which they are enrolled and written permission from the Dean's Office of the school in which the graduate course is offered. In the Lubin graduate programs, these courses must be in either the Foundation or Integrative Core of the M.B.A. program.
