Money, Money and Money!
Business management, marketing, entrepreneurship and accounting skills find application in every area of employment. Whether you are interested in retail sales, public accounting, advertising, or starting your own business, these programs are for you. Successful business students are good communicators.
Business Management and Administration students learn the latest software and business principles necessary to run an office in a small or large business.
Accounting and Finance programs allow students to use the latest software in the preparation of detailed financial reports, analyzing business scenarios, banking and making informed business decisions.
Marketing students focus on merchandising, retailing and advertising. Operation of a school store and working with marketing related situations provided by local businesses are part of the program.
All three programs promote entrepreneurship through the development of business start-up plans and regular interaction with area business owners.
