Business program objectives may vary according to the specific field of Business being covered, but overall the aim is to prepare students for effective professional and managerial careers in organizations. At a general level this preparation includes developing students' capacity for critical thinking, for integrating knowledge across different disciplines, and for utilizing current theory in approaching practical business problems. Students are also expected to become comfortable with taking risks and working as part of a team, and to develop the necessary skills to lead others.
At a more specific level, students must acquire competency in:
Understanding critical business concepts
Applying critical thinking to business problems
Demonstrating effective oral and written communication
Understanding the ethical, legal, and social responsibilities of individuals and organizations.
To these ends, business programs are flexible and offer students both breadth and depth. Breadth is achieved through a broad-based core of required courses which provide the necessary quantitative, analytical, and communication skills, while also grounding students in applied theory and practice across the major management disciplines. Depth is achieved through the opportunities to focus in particular areas of study designed to meet the needs of a highly diverse student body with a wide range of career interests and priorities.
