Program Description
Management is a broad-based discipline. The faculty offers courses for students who desire either a specific business emphasis within management or a general business degree. Most management graduates enter into an internship or training program where they can integrate their general business skills with specific job responsibilities. Since management is a broad field, variation is allowed in academic programs. Management majors are urged to focus their course work in an area of concentration. Group A electives—3-9
BSAD courses not previously applied Group B electives—0-6
Electives may be selected from ACCT, ECON, FNCE, INFS or MKTG courses Business Major Course/GPA Requirements
Students must complete the required and elective major courses (27 credits) with a minimum GPA of 2.33 (C+). The GPA is figured including all courses attempted—even those in which a D is received and which, therefore, do not apply towards the 27 credits of the major.
All management majors must obtain a C (2.00) minimum grade in ACCT 121 , ACCT 122 and a C (2.00) minimum grade in BSAD 355 . General Electives—13
Sufficient credits to complete the 124 credits required for graduation. Andrews Core Experience - 42
