CURRICULUM
The core curriculum is designed to give students knowledge in those areas where managers spend a major portion of their time within the company. Each course is considered to be an introductory course and, therefore, does not require specific academic competencies.
Students receive academic credit for studying group and organizational behavior, systems management, accounting for manager, statistical methods and research, managerial finance, biblical perspectives for managers, managerial economics, human resources administration, principles of management and supervision, and business ethics.
The end result is a 36-semester hour major and a bachelor of science degree in Organizational Management.
