Description:

Set in motion creating your own business. If you're bursting with ideas, but know that you need more than concepts and energy to make that dream a reality, this major is for you. Even if your own business isn't your goal, put skills and knowledge from this program in a corporate setting. Or, anywhere that needs a team leader. Most of your first year courses will provide a great background in business theory and skills such as accounting.



In second year, you'll focus on organizing, managing and decision-making skills that are essential for business success. You'll take salesmanship, leadership and business law.
