The Business Administration program prepares students for entry-level positions in the business world. Distinctives of the program include smaller classes, real-world projects, and an applied/skill-based approach to learning. Current graduates are serving in manufacturing, small businesses, corporate offices, sales, non-profits, and church/parachurch organizations. Students will develop the business skills, work ethic, and character required to succeed in business today. The emphasis is on integrating Christian faith and business. For further information, please contact the program director, Eric Teoro.
