Management

The department provides management majors with what they need in today's global environment: a solid educational foundation in international, ethical, legal, and technological environments. Students study the concepts and theories of solving organizational problems, including integrating the functional areas of the organization toward common goals, and dealing with employees as the business environment and society change.

 
 

Students explore the theory and practice of management, so that they are prepared for planning, organizing, controlling, and leading in a variety of fields and corporate settings. Classroom exercises and discussions provide them with insights into the value and challenges of cultural diversity in the workplace, and the need for businesses to be socially responsible citizens of a larger community.

Students gain working knowledge and hands-on experience through internships. Job opportunities for management majors exist in a wide range of business, government, and not-for-profit organizations, in human resources, retail management, banking, finance, health care, and other fast-growing industries.
