BS Management - Online

As a Management major, (formerly known as Business Administration), you will practice applying quantitative techniques, computer skills and critical thinking to help solve crucial problems. The Godbold College of Business will also equip you with a broad range of general business knowledge in functional areas such as marketing, finance, and accounting. Coupled with an emphasis on Christian business ethics and classroom knowledge of the business environment, the Bachelor of Science in Management will offer you opportunities for reality-based education through internships at regional and national companies.

This degree plan is an example of student progression through the program. The academic program requires a minimum of 120 credit hours of credit for the bachelor’s degree. The degree consists of a major field of concentration in the liberal arts or in a professional or pre-professional area, a General Education program, and elective courses. This example degree plan focuses Years 1 & 2 on the General Education program and Years 3 & 4 on the Major/Minor areas. It is recommended for students to incorporate Major/Minor courses into Years 1 & 2 as much as possible.
