| Overview |
The management concentration
allows students to explore and develop critical
managerial and entrepreneurial skills, including
leadership, team, and interpersonal skills such
as decision-making, conflict management, communication,
and venture-creation skills. Employers want managers
with good people skills not just technical skills.
Students can focus their concentration toward one
of three tracks: (1) human resource management,
(2) entrepreneurship/small business, or (3) managerial
effectiveness. |
| Career
Paths |
Students who complete their
baccalaureate degree with a concentration in management
are positioned well (a) for entry-level management
positions in domestic and international companies
and organizations including financial, biotech
and high tech, non-profit, computer and telecommunications,
education, healthcare, insurance, distribution
and manufacturing or (b) for joining an entrepreneurial/small
business venture. Recent graduates of the program
have found employment as account executives, human
resource personnel, consultants, operations personnel,
retail managers, property managers, and more. |

Notes |
The management concentration
enables students to create a focused track (e.g.,
HRM or Entrepreneurship/Small Business) not only
from the available academic courses but also by
incorporating an internship and/or an independent
study that can be directly related to one’s
focus. |
