Undergraduate Majors and Interests
Do you have diverse business interests? Want a degree that allows you to explore multiple areas of business? If so, a Bachelor of Business Administration degree in Business Integrated Studies might be for you.
By earning this B.B.A. degree, you'll be a desired employee because of your well-rounded education. This will be reflected in the unique and different perspectives you bring to the table, perhaps accelerating your climb up the corporate ladder.
Our graduates are prepared for a variety of generalist positions in business and industry or for entering a graduate business program. You could find careers in:
This option provides you the flexibility to create a degree program that best suits your individual and potential career interests. This is accomplished by integrating two different business areas offered by the College of Business rather than just choosing one major area.
The two areas are chosen in consultation with your academic advisor, who'll provide assistance the entire time you're in the program. Examples of potential combinations include:
It's also possible to choose International Business as one of your two areas. You'll enroll in international business courses while honing your foreign language skills through a careful selection of course work.
In addition to completing required courses, you can earn academic credit through select, approved internship and study abroad opportunities.
Our faculty members are dedicated teachers and nationally recognized professionals who utilize a "learn today, apply tomorrow" classroom philosophy. They also remain current on issues through research.
