Introduction
Business administration is the management of small, mid-size, and large businesses. The objective is to prepare students with the knowledge, technical skills, and work habits to pursue positions in various business fields. The curriculum provides a solid foundation in general business. Studying in this area will help students develop teamwork and leadership skills as well as the ability to motivate people and communicate effectively.
This program generally prepares individuals to plan, organize, direct, and control the functions and processes of a firm or organization with an emphasis on people as the most important asset of a business. This program will prepare individuals seeking management positions to be better candidates for promotion and those already in management positions to improve their management skills and effectiveness. This includes instruction in management practice and theory, human resources management and behavior, interpersonal communications in a business setting, marketing management, and business decision-making.
