Undergraduate Programs at the Carey Business School

Undergraduate programs at the Carey Business School are dedicated to the development and achievement of adult students seeking professional advancement and personal growth through the pursuit of undergraduate degrees. In support of this mission, programs provide majors that combine rigorous theoretical backgrounds with effective current practices.
Undergraduate degree programs integrate the knowledge and competencies of specific disciplines with the strengths of a liberal arts foundation. The broad base prepares students to adapt to the changing demands of the modern workplace; to pursue further studies at the graduate level; and/or to advance their careers, whether in corporate, government, nonprofit, human services, or educational organizations.

Courses are taught by faculty who combine strong academic credentials with expert professional experience. Classes are small, allowing interaction between faculty and students and providing stimulating, positive learning experiences. In this environment, students have the opportunity to expand their knowledge, acquire new skills, and foster professional and leadership capacities.

Undergraduate programs build student competencies in 10 key areas: (1) oral and written communications; (2) critical thinking, analytical reasoning, and problem solving; (3) technology proficiency; (4) information literacy and research methods; (5) human relations, especially in networking and teambuilding; (6) historical and global perspectives; (7) value-based decision making; (8) leadership and change; (9) aesthetic appreciation; and (10) a sense of lifelong personal and professional development. These competencies, combined with specific, standards-based program objectives, ensure an integrated, relevant academic experience.

Students may earn a bachelor of science degree in the following academic programs: Bachelor of Science in Business and Management and Bachelor of Science in Information Systems.
