General Business

The General Business Specialization is designed for the student who desires a broad preparation in business studies rather than specializing in any one particular business area.  Students receive a marketable Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with expanded exposure to a multitude of business disciplines.

Students with broad training in business subjects can expect to find employment in widely varied types of business activity.  Students have greater flexibility in selecting specific courses in the general business specialization, subject to the approval of the chairperson of the Department of Financial Systems and the Dean of the College of Business.
