If you want to play a leadership role in a small, mid- or large-sized business, or start your own business, a PSU management degree will give you the skills you need to succeed.
The Bachelor of Science degree in Management prepares students with the quantitative and qualitative problem solving and teamwork skills to work with and lead people to achieve strategic organizational goals. Students are prepared to compete for management positions in local to global corporate, governmental, and non-profit sectors of the economy. The program of study allows students to focus on skills and capabilities specific to the fields or industries in which they are interested, including classes in entrepreneurship, big data and analysis, business consulting, and professional selling.
We teach management through experiential learning, where you will work on projects for area businesses, helping them think through and solve their daily business issues. You’ll work alongside your fellow students, under the supervision of our faculty, on interesting management problems for real-world businesses in a variety of sectors, including entertainment, tourism, manufacturing and hospitality.
Our faculty have extensive experience in business management. They’ve served in senior management positions in large, multi-national businesses as well as led small businesses and built start-ups. Learn from their experience in a fun and challenging environment!
We offer two options in management: General Management and Transformational Innovation and Design Entrepreneurship (TIDE).
All baccalaureate business degree programs offered are nationally accredited by the Association of Collegiate Business Schools and Programs (ACBSP).
