The management major is designed to prepare students for careers as managers in for-profit or not-for-profit organizations, private sector, or public sector. Managers set the goals of their organizations and decide how best to achieve them. They direct activities and allocate financial, physical, and information resources. They lead members of the organization to work together, and they monitor progress toward achieving the organization’s goals. The management major provides broad coverage of the technical, interpersonal, conceptual, and analytical skills necessary to specialize in a particular concentration such as human resource management or change/innovation management.
