School of Management and Business
Undergraduate Program
BBA with a Major in Management


In many instances the profitability of a firm is related to the degree of success with which employees and management can effect an integrated production plan and process. The central challenge of management is to create the environment and framework of controls in which people will cooperate effectively.

Many management specialists believe that the functions of management are the same regardless of the type of organization, although they may recognize major differences related to size and scale of operations. Focuses of management courses are on processes and organizational behavior.

Courses taught in the School of Management and Business contain a content-relevant ethics component.
