Business Administration — Management Concentration, BADepartment of Management, College of Business and Economics 88-90 creditsIntroduction/What is the Study of Business Administration?The Business Administration program is designed to prepare students for leadership roles in business and the community. One program objective is to provide students with the perceptual and analytical skills necessary to make decisions and evaluate policies in business; another is to develop student understanding of the social, economic and regulatory environment of business. The program is designed for students with a variety of career goals, including opportunities with financial institutions, manufacturing and retail firms, service industries and the public sector. Why Consider a Management Concentration in Business Administration Major?A management concentration prepares a student to work with people in a variety of contexts. While other business disciplines focus on business tasks, management focuses on how to motivate others to accomplish these tasks efficiently and effectively with high quality results. Students learn how to manage projects, work with teams, implement changes, and be effective leaders.
