BSBA - General Business

General Business is the broadest major in the College of Business Administration. This program provides the student exposure to all facets of the business process. Maximum flexibility is retained by the student. At the same time, careful use of general and junior/senior business administration electives allows the student to concentrate additional course work in one or more selected functional areas. General business also may be particularly valuable to students planning to pursue a Master of Business Administration (MBA) degree.
