Business Administration
General Business - Business Administration
Bachelor of Science
The General Business program is particularly well-suited for those who want to work in a small to medium sized company where there is an expectation of competency across a range of business functions. It is also a good place to start for students who are interested in studying business but are uncertain about which particular field they want to study (e.g. Accounting, Finance, Marketing, Management, Entrepreneurship, Supply Chain Management, Human Resource Management, Personal Financial Planning). All our business majors will equip students with general business skills and knowledge so a student may not double major between General Business and other business majors.
