BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION (BSBA – Business Administration Concentration) The Business Administration concentration offers a strong foundation in business complemented by advanced coursework selected to meet students’ personal, professional and career interests. The knowledge, skills, and abilities acquired through the Business Administration concentration will allow students to pursue employment with large or small companies, non- profit organizations or government agencies. The flexibility of the concentration allows the opportunity to select a variety of advanced courses across two different fields. Students will have flexibility to study more than one field, but, by taking 12 credits in each of the two subject areas, will gain a sufficient depth of knowledge in both areas. Specifically, to satisfy the requirements, students will take 12 credits from any two distinct concentration areas for a total of 24 credits. Any of the current DSB Concentration areas are available to choose from: Accounting (ACCT), Economics (ECON), Entrepreneurship (ENTR), Finance (FINC), Healthcare Management (HCMG), International Management (IMGT), Management (MGMT), Marketing (MKTG), Risk Management and Insurance (RISK), Sport Business (SMGT), and Supply Chain Management (SCMG). Students cannot double count requirements within the two areas of concentration. The 12 credits from each of the two concentrations must be distinct.
