The department’s goals are based on a concept that emphasizes not only technical competence but also the ethics of professional service, thus seeking to foster sensitivity and responsiveness to social responsibilities as well as the ability to identify and pursue personal opportunities. The faculty endeavors to achieve these goals through a variety of teaching techniques-lectures, cases, role-playing, seminars, directed study, internships and computer team simulations. The department arranges and supervises internships (i.e., actual job situations) in all majors for qualified juniors and seniors.

The major in business administration will provide necessary instruction in functional areas including management, marketing, finance and accounting, as well as economics. This provides a generalist background needed for a variety of careers in business and a solid foundation for the MBA degree. Students wishing to specialize have the opportunity to do so by taking their elective courses in management, marketing or finance.
