Business Administration Overview
The Bachelor of Science in Business Administration curriculum provides a broad, professional foundation in all functional areas of business. Students follow a structured, organic core curriculum that introduces them to the various functions (marketing, finance, operations, accounting) of business; provides them with the quantitative tools (algebra, statistics, computer science, economics, decision science) necessary to understand and interpret data; and introduces them to prevailing management theories and paradigms as well as issues related to legal and ethical concerns in the business arena.
Upper level courses incorporate case analyses, group projects and creative problem solving. All students spend their senior year completing two courses designed to culminate the program: Decision Making (quantitative methods), taken in the fall semester; and the capstone course, Strategic Management, in the spring semester, which is a seminar-style, case-based application of the tools and concepts acquired in the first three years of study.
The Business Administration program has an international focus with many opportunities for students to explore the social and cultural ramifications of operating in the global economy. The nature of the student body complements the international flavor of the program. AUR Business students represent more than 30 different countries.
