Vanderbilt Business Minor
HOOGLAND UNDERGRADUATE BUSINESS PROGRAM
Business Minor
The Hoogland Undergraduate Business Program is an opportunity for students to pursue a program that is “Uniquely Vanderbilt.” This trans-institutional program, with elective course options from each of the four undergraduate schools and fundamentals courses taught by the Owen Graduate School of Management, is designed to complement the solid liberal arts education.
My ultimate goal is to become a physician or dentist who can provide excellent care to my patients and contribute to the innovation and advancement of the medical field.
I plan to focus initially on marketing and finance to get a foundation for managing a dental/medical office. There is still a side in me that wants to go into research, and I will also add statistics.
