Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with a Specialization in General Business

You may be interested in working in the world of business because it’s a very broad profession, and being a business professional allows you to accomplish many things: to express yourself through a new product or enterprise, to work toward financial independence, to help others, to travel the world, or a combination of these accomplishments.

Are you  leaning toward a degree in business but want to explore different fields before choosing a specialization? Are you working full-time and need the convenience of online courses? The General Business concentration in the Business Administration degree program is a great choice for students who want flexibility in how they earn a degree, and is the only College of Business major that may be completed online. Many students start their college journey as General Business majors and change to a business specialization that matches their career goals. Other students choose General Business to accommodate their work/family schedule or because they like the idea of developing a wide spectrum of business knowledge and skills.
