The vision of the College of Business and Economics is to be the regional leader in the acquisition, application, and transfer of business and economic knowledge. Consistent with this vision, the college has achieved accreditation of its programs by AACSB International - The Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business.
Students majoring in business administration have varied opportunities to select a program to meet specific interests. One choice is to complete a business administration degree with a minor. Another is to pursue a broad area business administration degree with an option in marketing, management, finance, or management information systems.
