The work of a manager involves analyzing, planning, and
coordinating the activities of a company. The management major provides
training in analyzing problems, making decisions, delegating
assignments, training and supervising employees, budgeting, and
coordinating. The management major provides the skills needed to secure
an entry-level position, as well as the tools needed by top management
to lead an organization. The management area encompasses
entrepreneurship, human resource management, management information
systems, strategy, and international business. Management majors can
pursue a general management specialization, strategy/entrepreneurship
specialization, or an ecommerce technology specialization. The general
management specialization provides students with broad exposure to
several management subfields. The strategy/entrepreneurship management
specialization provides students with preparation for a career as an
entrepreneur or a corporate entrepreneur with a strategic orientation
to themes of globalization and technology. The ecommerce
technology specialization prepares students to develop skills
necessary to help businesses compete and develop strategies for
web-based interactions among companies, employees, customers, and
suppliers.
