Business Administration
In today's competitive, global business environment, managers must have a variety of skills in order to lead successfully. Leaders are no longer insulated from the functional areas of business. Many responsible positions require a solid background in business fundamentals, as well as an appreciation of the interrelated nature of business functions.
Program Objectives
The McLaren College of Business has designed the Business Administration major for those students who wish to maximize flexibility in their educational background. A Business Administration major provides the opportunity for students to choose an inter-disciplinary course from outside business in addition to a variety of elective business courses to further develop skills in their areas of interest while also increasing their understanding of the broader business environment. Students choosing this major receive a comprehensive business education allowing them access to a variety of career paths. The curriculum is designed to encourage students to develop their communication, analytical and computer skills, creativity, and other qualities necessary for success in organizational life.
Students should work closely with a faculty advisor in developing and sequencing the courses for their major.
Students must take 20 upper division, non-core, units. 16 of these units must be from the business school, the remaining 4 units may be either business, the equivalent of at least the third semester of a second language, or from an upper division course work outside business. Courses, other than language, from another school must be reviewed and approved by the student's faculty advisor. Students should refer to the course catalog and semester schedules to select the upper division courses. Upper division business courses which may be applied to the Business Administration major include: BA 310 - BA 399 and BA 410 - BA 489.
