The program provides students with knowledge, skills, and dispositions necessary for advancement in the field of management.

With appropriate advising, students will take a sequence of courses that will:
- meet Ohio University’s General Education and baccalaureate degree requirements;
- follow naturally from and amplify the learning experiences in their associate degree subject areas; and
