Key Summary
Introduction
Business administration is the management of small, mid-size, and large businesses. The objective is to prepare students with the knowledge, technical skills, and work habits to pursue positions in various business fields. The curriculum provides a solid foundation in general business. Studying in this area will help students develop teamwork and leadership skills as well as the ability to motivate people and communicate effectively.
The Business Administration program prepares students to apply business principles and techniques in various career settings (domestic, international, electronic, etc.) to gain perspective on business situations affecting personal and working lives.
