Abstract
Undergraduate students are becoming aware of the edge that a business degree presents in the job hunt, yet many cannot justify the additional resources spent in obtaining a second major. A minor in business circumvents this constraint. The authors build on previous research into the motivations of students to choose a business minor by using Ajzen's Theory of Planned Behavior as a theoretical basis for indentifying the factors that might influence their intention to minor in an area of business. A survey administered to 617 nonbusiness undergraduate students, and subsequent analysis, supported Ajzen's theory that attitude, perceived behavioral control, and subjective norms all were significant predictors of intention.
