This program is designed to provide business and management skills to individuals who have already obtained an Associate in Applied Science degree in a technical discipline. Combined with a technical degree, this degree will prepare graduates to assume leadership and supervisory roles within organizations. While designed as a third-year option, this program is adaptable to full-time workers who may not be able to attend campus on a full-time basis.
The student must have earned an Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree from an accredited institution.
Upon successful completion of the required courses, students will be awarded an Associate in Applied Science (A.A.S.) degree in Business Management with an emphasis in Business Technology Management.
Students will take classes in the general business areas of accounting, business law, marketing, management, sales and organizational behavior. Students will also take required classes in math and public speaking. These courses are essential in well-rounded front-line or middle-level supervisors.
Management is a universal concept that is essential for all organizations – large and small, for-profit, not-for-profit or governmental. The Business Technology Management option is designed to meet industry demand for trained supervisors, middle managers, administrative assistants and entrepreneurs who understand how to plan, organize, direct, communicate and control business operations.
