This curriculum leads to an Associate of Arts degree with a Field of Study in Business Administration. The program is designed to prepare students to continue toward a Bachelor of Business Administration degree with major fields that may include accounting, finance, marketing, management and management information systems.
All business administration pathways complete the same foundational coursework during the first two years, leading to the associate degree. This coursework is designed to transfer toward a Bachelor of Business Administration degree at the four-year institution of the student’s choice.
While all business administration students pursue the same general degree path initially, specific university requirements and major-field expectations may vary. Students are encouraged to work closely with advisors and prospective transfer institutions to ensure a smooth transition.
Students pursuing business administration may prepare for careers in management, finance, human resources, operations, marketing, sales and entrepreneurship.
