The Business Administration program provides training for students in entry-level administrative positions in the private sector. The program also offers courses which may be transferred to a baccalaureate program, thereby allowing the option of further study for the graduate in business administration.

Candidates for the Associate in Science (A.S.) degree will be given substantial exposure to the field of administrative management. Functional areas in business are covered by courses in the principles of management, finance, marketing, and accounting. In addition, students will be given a strong grounding in legal aspects of business activity. Students become familiar with basic concepts and applications of data processing to business problems.

Courses have been selected so that transfers within the department are possible between the A.S. in Business Administration and the A.A.S. Programs in Accounting and Data Processing, should a student elect to change within the first two semesters of study.

MAT 1628 College Algebra and MAT 1682 Introduction to Probability and Statistics are required for all students who are candidates for the A.S. degree in Business Administration.
