Degree Programs

The department offers a Bachelor of Arts in Management, a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, and a Minor in Business Administration. Department classes may be taken toward the major upon completion of the prerequisite courses with a grade of 2.0 or higher in each course.

Students entering the major are expected to have a 2.7 cumulative G.P.A on a 4.0 scale. Transfer students are expected to have a 2.7 average from their previous school(s). A 2.0 in each prerequisite course also applies. This includes both prerequisites to the major and individual course prerequisites.

We advise students to complete the majority of their prerequisite courses no later than the spring of their sophomore year. BUS 226 should be taken early, followed by BUS 240. Transfer students usually take BUS 226 in their first semester, unless exempted by a Business advisor. All prerequisite courses must be taken for a numerical grade and students must earn a minimum grade of 2.0 in each course.

Internships

Internships are a way to gain a competitive edge.

Employers look at your resume to see what you have done academically, in service to others, and in varsity sports. The critical tie-breaker is often whether or not you have had a meaningful internship with a company.

Our professors work closely with students to help them gain an understanding of various career opportunities. Competing for nationally recognized summer internships allows students to be exposed to the best business practices of our nation's leading corporations. As these are competitive job placements, our professors coach students on interview skills, résumé preparation, and how to make the most out of an internship once selected.
