Business Administration Major

Steven Smith, Ph.D., Chair

The business administration program is designed to combine a strong liberal arts education with courses and activities related to the nature and operation of for-profit and not-for-profit organizations. Coursework emphasizes analytical and critical thinking, and the application of material to case studies and simulations, rather than memorization alone. Courses emphasize a strategic management approach to decision-making and problem solving. Students develop strong analytical and group project skills by working with case studies of contemporary businesses with an emphasis on ethical business standards and a commitment to diversity in the workplace. Students will be prepared to contribute immediately in their career or in a graduate school environment.
