• As an Engineering and Technology minor, can I use any of my E&M minor classes towards fulfilling the requirements for any other minor or certificate at Georgia Tech?
No. It's Georgia Tech policy that students may not use courses toward one minor to fulfill requirements for any other minor or certificate at Georgia Tech, including MGT certificates.

• As an Engineering and Technology minor, can I use any of my E&M minor courses towards fulfilling a concentration in the Scheller College of Business? (BSBA students only)
Yes. College of Business students pursuing the E&M minor may use up to two E&M courses towards MGT concentrations (but not toward certificates), as long as the E&M course appears within the list of courses eligible for the concentration. When applying the E&M courses to MGT concentrations, the courses may be used only once. For instance, althougg MGT 3744 (an E&M class) is listed under at least three different MGT concentrations, students can only apply it to one concentration. E&M minor classes cannot be used to fulfill requirements for any other certificate or minor at Tech, including MGT certificates.

• I'm going to continue to be a BS Management student. Can I still use two of my E&M courses (up to six credits) towards my Management electives?
Yes. Since BSM students do not need to complete a concentration (and instead must complete 18 credits of any MGT elective), they can use ME 3743 and ME 3744 from the E&M minor towards their 18 credits of MGT electives. Any remaining E&M classes may be used to fulfill the BSM non-MGT elective area (only the non-MGT E&M courses) or the free elective area.
