Business Administration

The Business Administration concentration of the Management major supplies a broad business perspective for students who eventually wish to be involved in profit or goal management responsibilities. This program of study is not intended to prepare students for a career in any one type of industry or profession. Rather, it provides the graduate with a knowledge of basic managerial skills required by managers from small business owners to corporate presidents.

Entrepreneurship

The Entrepreneurship concentration allows students to develop the skills needed to start and own a business, to develop or grow an existing company, or to create an entrepreneurial environment within an organization.
