You can travel the world, start your own successful business, and inspire those around you. In this program, you will practice interpersonal skills, professional judgment, and time management in addition to mastering many tangible skills involving software programs, finance, marketing, and accounting, just to name a few. In short, the Business Administration degree teaches you to become a leader in any industry. Our graduates are enjoying very successful careers all around the Rogue Valley and the world. The program offers students the option to further develop their managerial skill sets and competencies in four option areas: Marketing, Management, Hospitality &amp; Tourism Management, and Accounting. The Accounting option offers two tracks \u2013 Management Accounting and Public Accounting. The latter is intended for students planning to take the CPA examination.<\/p>\n<p class=\"heavy-man dig-4\">So, what makes us different than all the other universities out there? We pride ourselves on five basic strengths:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"pop-4\">\n<li>Small class sizes. The average class size in the School of Business is 26. This means you get to know your professors, and they get to know you. When it comes time to graduate, professors can be a huge support in the way of providing leads to job opportunities, writing letters of recommendation, and helping you network in a professional community. You won\u2019t find that at a large school. You also build lifelong friendships with your classmates. You aren\u2019t stuck in a class where no one knows you.<\/li>\n<li>Community involvement. When you\u2019re a senior, you are required to participate in a community learning activity: an internship or business research project. We realize that one of the keys to a great experience is putting your education into action. An internship allows you to gain practical experience that can lead to a full-time job after graduation. The business research project allows you to work with a real organization on a real problem. Both opportunities get you out into the community and network with other business professionals.<\/li>\n<li>Experienced faculty. Most of our professors have extensive business experience. That means they aren\u2019t just teaching from a textbook. They can provide real-world examples to demonstrate course concepts.<\/li>\n<li>International exchange. There are many opportunities for you to study abroad, periods ranging from three weeks to a full academic year. International exchange helps you see there are multiple ways of viewing the world. By studying with people from other cultures, you can learn new ways of solving problems and communicating.<\/li>\n<li>Degree supplementation. Every business student is required to complete a minor outside the School of Business, an interdisciplinary certificate, or a study abroad program for one year. Earning a certificate or minor will allow you to develop knowledge and skills in another area that may jump-start your career and open even more doors of opportunity.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>On top of all that, the School of Business is ACBSP accredited, which is a national accreditation just for business programs, and we are rated #25 by <em>US News and World Report<\/em> for Top Public Schools and #20 on <em>Get Educated<\/em>\u2019s list of Best Buys.<\/p>\n<p>Stand out from the crowd with a degree in Business at 91视频.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500\">\n#top .av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500{\npadding-bottom:0;\nfont-size:28px;\n}\nbody .av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 .av-special-heading-tag .heading-char{\nfont-size:25px;\n}\n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:28px;\n}\n.av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 .av-subheading{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n\n@media only screen and (min-width: 480px) and (max-width: 767px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n\n@media only screen and (max-width: 479px){ \n#top #wrap_all .av-special-heading.av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 .av-special-heading-tag{\nfont-size:0.8em;\n}\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='av-special-heading av-10kuxu8-6235d4ac6e9bead08d873b8e6ba8c500 av-special-heading-h2 blockquote modern-quote  avia-builder-el-20  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock  av-inherit-size'><h2 class='av-special-heading-tag '  itemprop=\"headline\"  >Study Abroad<\/h2><div class=\"special-heading-border\"><div class=\"special-heading-inner-border\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-4hot01c-ed2d4e3a48895a1191f2dfe35099fd26\">\n#top .av_textblock_section.av-4hot01c-ed2d4e3a48895a1191f2dfe35099fd26 .avia_textblock{\nfont-size:14px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-4hot01c-ed2d4e3a48895a1191f2dfe35099fd26 '   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><span class=\"heavy-man\">Undergraduate Dual Degree<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Students in this program earn both a business degree from  91视频 and a degree from one of \u00a0our partner universities in Germany (Hochschule Harz or HTW Saarlandes).
