Business Administration Careers
Course Information
The Business Administration Careers (BAC) Program has been designed to allow and encourage the acquisition of specific skills which will enable the student to enter and perform successfully in a wide variety of career paths within business. The student will attain focus in his or her studies by concentrating in a sequence of courses collectively referred to as an "Option." There are currently five Options that exist within the Business Administration Careers Program, four of which follow specific career paths: Accounting, Marketing, Supervisory Management, and Hotel/Restaurant Management. Students who are uncertain as to which specific career path they wish to follow should select a fifth Option: General Business.
General Business | Accounting | Hospitality Management | Marketing | Supervisory Management
The sequencing of specific course requirements within the Business Administration Careers Program allows the student whose career interests change after the first semester to switch Options or to switch into the transfer program (Business Administration Transfer) with no risk of having to make up courses. Students are encouraged to consult with advisors before choosing any Option sequence; such a choice is often not made until the end of the student's first semester.
