McIntire offers three minors to all University of Virginia undergraduate students: Leadership, Entrepreneurship, and Real Estate. Through a coordinated curriculum across multiple schools at UVA, the minors allow undergraduate students to supplement their chosen field of study with skills they’ll need to lead and compete in today’s complex global environment.
We’ve designed the Leadership Minor to transform how students think about leadership and to develop the skills they need to lead people and organizations in today’s complex global environment. With this minor, students will be able to supplement the intellectual depth in their chosen fields of study and enhance their contributions within these fields by leveraging their leadership knowledge, skills, and abilities in their work.
McIntire’s Entrepreneurship Minor prepares students to play crucial roles in the new venture community, including startups and new ventures operating within or launched by established firms. The program provides an education in and experience with the tools, techniques, and transformations involved in new venture development.
The Real Estate Minor is designed to help students create positive change in the built environment—the human-made structures and energy systems that define the world and our lives. With topics ranging from redlining and social impact to urban planning, ethics, and real estate investment, students will have access to rich interaction with disciplines across Grounds including commerce, public policy, history, ethics, engineering, and design.
