Business Administration, B.S. (BADM)
The General Business concentration offers students the flexibility to customize their program of study by selecting four upper-level business and/or economics elective courses. The concentration is designed for students who prefer to obtain broad undergraduate training in business, rather than specializing in a specific area. The concentration provides students with a solid understanding of business fundamentals and prepares students for a career in business and related fields.
Students graduating with a major in Business Administration will be able to:
- Demonstrate working knowledge of the major functional areas of Business and their applications;
- Communicate effectively in both written and oral form using appropriate presentation strategies;
- Identify and evaluate business problems and use appropriate tools to arrive at reasoned conclusions;
- Demonstrate quantitative skills and abilities by solving business problems and make sound business decisions;
- Identify and evaluate ethical and social responsibility implications that underlie business decisions.
