Business Administration- Management

Management is a dynamic field found in every business and every type of industry. Managers play many roles including leader, liaison, spokesperson, entrepreneur and negotiator. They work with and through others to accomplish the goals and objectives of organizations and the individuals connected with them. Management students study leadership, team building, strategy, and creative problem solving.

Managers are the decision makers in a diverse and ever-changing global business environment. Their actions and decisions affect everything in our society from what products we find on the store shelves to what we see on television. Management plays a key role in everyday life.

Even individuals not in traditional management positions call upon their management skills. The Management major focuses on learning the techniques necessary to achieve goals efficiently and effectively.
