General Information
Undergraduate Programs
The undergraduate program of studies of the Department integrates broad knowledge of the business enterprise with in-depth knowledge in an area of concentration. Most of the courses during the first four semesters are common for all students of the Department. They involve introductory courses in various disciplines and courses in Business Fundamentals. These courses are designed to provide a general education and the necessary background for further in-depth study in one of the above areas of concentration.
