Bachelor of Science in Business - E-Business


Program Description

The Bachelor of Science in Business program is designed to prepare graduates with the requisite knowledge, skills, and values to effectively apply various business principles and tools in an organizational setting. The BSB entry sequence exposes students to valuable theoretical knowledge and best practices in the areas of management, organizational behavior, research and evaluation, e-business, and critical thinking and problem solving. In all BSB program coursework, the curriculum addresses critical business issues in the areas of diversity, globalization, ethics, technology, and e-business.

The e-business major is designed to help the student acquire theory, skills, and values associated with a business environment that has an increasing dependence on Internet technology. The focus of the curriculum is business with an emphasis in e-business. Completion of the BSB/EB can be used to enhance career growth or as a segue into a graduate program.

In addition to the BSB business entry coursework, the e-business major includes coursework in economics, computers and information processing, financial analysis, business law, marketing, business information system development, project management, the Web, and e-business. This undergraduate degree program has a 60-credit Required Course of Study: 39 credits are allocated to the Bachelor of Science in Business/Administration Major, 18 credits to business entry coursework, and 3 credits to the integrating course. Some courses have prerequisite requirements.

In addition to the Required Course of Study, students must satisfy General Education and Elective requirements to meet the 120 semester-credit minimums (124 for Kansas students) required for completion of the degree.
