UNDERGRADUATE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION COURSES
Following the GBA requirements, students select a concentration area for advanced study. Currently the following concentration areas are available:
-
International Business
-
Economics
-
Management
-
Small Business Enterprise
-
Management Information Systems
Each concentration requires 21 units of advanced study chosen from a select list of courses designed to prepare students for a career in that particular field. Students may develop an individualized concentration using existing courses with the approval of the Dean. The program is concluded with the course of Business Policies (BA 290) which is usually taken in the student's final semester. At least 14 units of elective courses must be chosen from the university catalog. Knowledge gained in the program is combined to provide a crucial overall understanding of business operations.
