Business Administration
The College of Business is dedicated to educating men and women for professional
positions in business, government, and nonprofit organizations. The thrust
of the college is to build upon a liberal arts foundation for a lifetime
of learning and growth.
The undergraduate program is primarily an upper-division curriculum in
which about half of the work is in the humanities, behavioral sciences,
and mathematics, and the remainder in business and economics.
Core and option programs are designed to prepare students to become professionals.
They equip students with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to
understand and cope with complex, changing, and increasingly global business
environments. Individual courses promote recognition of potential problems,
foster creative problem-solving, and provide basic analytical and conceptual
skills. Supportive and cooperative learning environments allow students
to strengthen their interpersonal and communication skills.
Faculty and Facilities
Members of our faculty earned doctorates at our nation’s finest universities,
including Harvard, Penn State, Chicago, and Northwestern in the East, UCLA,
Arizona, and USC in the West. Many of our faculty have combined their scholarly
training with business experience through industry employment or extensive
consulting work with major corporations. This combination of in-depth training
and business experience translates into state-of-the-art instruction.
The college has its own computer learning centers, allowing full integration
of the computer into our curriculum. In addition, the centers allow the
faculty to make extensive use of the management simulation approach to
learning.
The quality of both our faculty and our facilities has been recognized
by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business which has
accredited both our undergraduate and graduate programs.
Student Advising and Information
The college offers advising and information services for both undergraduates
and graduates in centralized offices in Glenn Hall. These offices will
help you plan a course of study once you are here. They also assist prospective,
new, and transfer students with transfer course credit problems and issues.
