Business Administration

From entrepreneurial start-ups to working in a large corporate office-an associate degree in business can be applied to any industry. You'll study the scope and place of business in our economic system and gain an understanding of the internal organization of business, basic management skills, accounting, and the principles of marketing, management, and relevant areas of business law. You will develop a working knowledge of computers, and all students in the program participate in an off-campus cooperative education experience.

The associate in science (A.S.) degree program in Business Administration is designed for students planning to transfer to upper division colleges in preparation for careers in accounting, marketing, human resources and related business fields. The program provides you with the liberal arts background you need to transfer, and by working with your academic advisor and a transfer counselor, you will have the electives to meet your desired transfer requirements and career needs.

The associate in applied science (A.A.S.) degree program in Business Administration is designed for students considering careers in the expanding fields of sales, advertising, human resources, office management and related areas. You'll receive a broad business education foundation, enabling you to move into a variety of entry-level business positions. Although the A.A.S. degree program is primarily for students who want to begin their career after graduation, many graduates successfully transfer to four-year business programs.

More than 50 percent of both the A.A.S. and A.S. programs may be taken in an eLearning format.
