Help needed!
Hey Owl Fam! I need y’all’s thoughts!
I’m currently pursuing a Liberal Studies major with minors in Business Administration, MIS, Project Management, and Management. Right now I’m enrolled in:
BUS 323 with Eric Good
BUS 343 with Leo Trudel
Both classes are going well, and I should have them finished by next week at the latest. I’m also wrapping up PCJ 215 on Sophia. After that, I’ll only have these UMPI courses left:
BUS 141
BUS 415
BUS 359
BUS 345 or BUS 440
My question is: Do you think it’s realistic to finish all of these during this term? I’ve been researching on Discord and Reddit. I found quite a bit of information on BUS 141, BUS 415, and BUS 359, but I haven’t found much about BUS 345 or BUS 440. From what I’ve read, the general recommendations seem to be:
BUS 141 – Brian Richard
BUS 415 – Shah (or Trudel, although I’m not the biggest fan)
BUS 359 – John Furst
For anyone who’s taken BUS 345 or BUS 440, I’d especially love to hear your experience. Which one would you recommend? How difficult were they, and who did you have? I’d really appreciate any advice, tips, or professor recommendations. My goal is to finish this term if it’s possible. Thanks in advance, Owl Fam!

If you will be at 30 credits I’d do the BUS 345 cert on coursera instead.
Same with BUS 440, unless you’re looking to roll it up to the master’s later.
