Areas of Study

The Business Administration program offers study in finance, management, marketing, small business, computer information systems and general business. Neither narrow nor vocational in its approach, the course work includes logical thinking, communication skills, theoretical, technical and professional skills, and creative problem solving/decision making.

Business policies and practices both reflect and help form the ethical, global/international, and moral foundations of a society; business both draws upon and contributes to knowledge and understanding of the world. In recognition of this, the Business Administration Department educates its students to be discerning, responsible citizens of both the business community and our democratic society.

The theoretical aspects of business are grounded in social sciences such as economics, political science, psychology, sociology and anthropology. The Business Administration curriculum is therefore broadly conceived. It prepares students for entry into the business world or for graduate study, and offers them a liberal education that will contribute to their intellectual, personal and ethical growth.

Note: Students taking upper division Business Administration courses must have a mathematics ability equivalent to college algebra. They are encouraged to take MATH 211 and 212, Concepts of Calculus. Business Administration students are encouraged to take writing courses beyond the Freshman English sequence.
