Program Requirements

The General Business major prepares professionals on a broad basis for business careers. Five upper-level courses are required from the following areas: accounting, quantitative business analysis, management, management information systems, business law, finance, marketing, op­erations, business administration, and economics (course selection restricted to ECON 303, 304, 320, 332, 360, or 430). Each course will be in a different functional area or discipline. This major is of special interest if you have a generalized view of business and do not possess strong interests in any one concentration.

Upon graduation, students with a general business major enter what might be the broadest area of positions of any major within the College of Business. Recent graduates have entered such fields as sales, banking, government services, personnel, advertising, small business entrepreneurship, production, and insurance.
