Undergraduate Majors Overview
A solid foundation that equips you to move mountains
Our undergraduate curriculum emphasizes the skills you need to successfully shift challenges into opportunity: independent thinking, decision-making, managing information, and adapting to a changing workforce. Based on input from the business community, this curriculum builds a solid foundation in core business principles and the crucial skills needed to compete in the current job market. U.S. News & World Report ranks us among the top quartile of AACSB-accredited undergraduate programs in the country.
Dynamic core curricula
The College offers two bachelor's degrees: a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (accounting, finance, business management, marketing, and management information systems) and a Bachelor of Science (economics). All students earning BSBA degrees take the 37 credit-hour core business curriculum. Students earning a Bachelor of Science in Economics must earn 18 credit hours of core coursework designated by that program.
The dynamic global environment of business presents many new challenges, and smart students realize they need a broad knowledge of business combined with skills in technology to meet these challenges. The core curriculum is modeled on the dynamic relationships among the functional areas of business - marketing, finance, accounting, and management (including management information systems) - as they occur in the real world of business. Throughout the curriculum, we emphasize strategies for timely, well-reasoned decisions and skills to help you move mountains.
Beyond the required core courses, students must complete the courses as required for graduation by their major and by the University. For degree requirements and an outline of a typical plan for each major, visit the page(s) of the major(s) that interest you.
