Business Administration B.S. (Management)

The B.S. in Business Administration with a concentration in Management features a blend of professional application and intellectual knowledge. Students gain an understanding of the impact of business management on the workplace and how to apply entrepreneurial principles in new ventures as well as established corporate environments. They learn valuable leadership skills, and how to adapt successfully to changes in the organizational climate and employment demands. Management is a broad concept here at RMU. Students with a Management concentration can focus on Managing People with our Human Resources courses or Managing Processes with our Operations courses. Our alignment with the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) exclusively permits students enrolled in their final year of a Human Resources degree program to apply for and take the Society for Human Resource Management – Certified Professional exam! With the 4+1 integrated degree program, students can go on to earn their M.B.A. with only one additional year of study.

Graduates hold positions in human resources, sales management, corporate training, nonprofit management, labor relations, supervision, administration, education, and banking. Jobs include recruiter, human resources manager, logistics supervisor, manager, consulting business analyst, operations associate, staffing manager and work process control coordinator.

Interested students in this course of study may be eligible for the Early Law School Admission Program.
