Since all merchandising courses are taught one semester per year only and most have prerequisites, a minimum of three semesters is required to complete the merchandising minor.
It is suggested that students begin the minor by taking MKTG 3230 Fashion Fundamentals during the spring semester of the sophomore year.
With the exception of MKTG 3230 Fashion Fundamentals all merchandising courses numbered 3000 or above require junior standing (having completed 48 semester hours).
