    • There are also substitution options for MGT 2250 listed here
  • MGT 2250 Management Statistics also has prerequisites
    • MATH 1712 or MATH 1550 or MATH 1551

What This Means for LMC Majors

  • LMC will approve MGT 2250 as an option/substitution in Area F Technical Electives in Degreeworks for Spring 2024 (pending approval for future semesters)
    • Email me for an adjustment in DW once you register
  • If interested in the marketing certificate, you should prioritize taking MATH 1712/1551
  • Prerequisite sequencing for the marketing certificate:
    • MATH 1712/1551 → MGT 2250/sub → MGT 3100
    • You could take MGT 3300 alongside MATH 1712 /1551 or MGT 2250/sub
  • Here’s an example of what it might look like to complete the certificate:
Year Spring Fall
Year 1 MATH 1712/1551 MGT 2250/sub &
MGT 3300
Year 2 MGT 3100 MGT elective
Year 3 MGT elective MGT elective

(You could try to double-up on classes so you can finish in a shorter time period – this is just an example!)
