Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a Specialization in Management
People with a common passion or purpose need a leader to help them get things done, whether in a Fortune 500 corporate setting, a mom-and-pop enterprise, or a nonprofit organization start-up. Stakeholders, investors, and employees depend on expert managers and leaders to share power and create a culture of trust among the team. Immediate profit and long-term financial rewards are desirable outcomes, but today’s executives and managers also focus on business sustainability, talent development, global competition and corporate responsibility.
