Welcome to the School of Business and Economics

usiness Administration
Business Administration prepares students to work in a range of industries, businesses, and nonprofits. The program allows students to choose from a variety of elective courses to create a particular area of concentration—marketing or management, for example— within the Business major. Many of our graduates work in the finance and insurance industries.

For those of you pursuing a Business major (with or without a concentration) AND planning to graduate in December 2011, keep this in mind as you select your courses for Spring 2011:
You should be getting most of your Business core classes completed, so that in Fall 2011 you will be taking at most ONE core Business class at the same time as Bus. 480, the capstone class.
In Fall 2011, Prof. Mihm and I will be co-leading a semester abroad in London. Prof. Mihm will be in London for the first half of the Fall semester; I will be in London for the second half of the semester. Therefore, our course offerings will be more limited.
In Fall 2011, there will be only one section each of Bus. 370 and Bus. 480, and they will be offered during the same time slot. The Bus. 480 class will run, in condensed form, during the first eight weeks of the semester and Bus. 370 will run, in condensed form, during the last eight weeks of the semester. These condensed classes will meet twice a week, for 2.5 hours each session (5 hours total class time per week).
This is not a requirement, but you may find it easier to set up your Fall schedule if you leave Bus. 370 until then, to be taken at the same time as Bus. 480. In other words, you might prefer to take OTHER core classes this coming Spring semester. 
Economics
Economics is a fascinating and challenging social science that deals with such issues as resource allocation, the efficiency of economic actors, inflation, unemployment, discrimination, economic growth, pollution and poverty.

These problems affect us as members of society concerned with how our economic system functions and as individuals concerned about our own jobs, wages, taxes and the cost of living. Economics is about choice - how to make rational choices between competing uses of scarce resources in light of social and personal values and needs. One of the main reasons to study economics is that it develops a method of thinking and analysis that can be applied to a variety of different fields. The Economics major offers courses in a variety of areas to allow students to choose among various career objectives and also prepare them for admission to graduate school in economics, law, business administration, public administration, and other disciplines.
