Many managers want to get up to speed quickly on current management theory and practice. Rather than specialize in a particular management area, they prefer to take a broad approach. The General Management major enables them to develop in-depth insights into all the key areas of contemporary management: financial, legal, human resources, quality, production, information technology, and marketing/sales.

Advanced level courses in the 33 credit-hour General Management major include:

Mgt 201. Communication and Soft Skills
Mgt 202. Business Law and Ethics
Mgt 215. Operations, Logistics, and Supply Chain Management
Mgt 253. Risk and Quality Management
Mgt 254. Contracts and Procurement

Mgt 200. Business Basics
Mgt 210. Quantitative Methods in Decision-making
Mgt 220. Information Technology
Mgt 230. Leadership and Organization
