The College of Business and Management offers programs leading to master’s and bachelor’s degrees, in particular, the Master of Business Administration (M.B.A.), the Bachelor of Business Administration (B.B.A.), the Bachelor of Professional Accountancy (B.P.A.) and the Bachelor of Arts (B.A.). The B.A. degree is available only with a major in economics. The B.B.A. program offered by the College allows students to major in accounting, economics, finance, international business, management, industrial management, marketing, and general business. Also, the College provides an array of minors in business and economics that frequently are elected by students with majors outside the college — for example, pre-law, computer science and many others.

Freshmen and Sophomores who intend to major or minor in any business program are encouraged to first enroll in the 200-level business core courses, the business cognate courses and indicate their intended majors and minors on the course registration form.

Students who are interested but undecided whether to declare a business major or minor should seek the advice of a business faculty member. These students should consider enrolling in MGT 121, Introduction to Business.
