The Business Administration program is committed to creating critical thinkers and principle-centered organizational architects. Business is about managing risk and change. Northwestern degree candidates face the rigors of a business education that focuses on combining traditional business modalities with creative simulation and communication technology to produce graduates who are consensus builders and leaders. As a Business Administration degree candidate you will:

  • Develop requisite knowledge in the building blocks of business: accounting, finance, human capital, economics, strategy and communication.
  • Gain an understanding of business in the global environment.
  • Form effective working relationships with students and faculty in the areas of accounting, general business management, marketing and sales, and office management.
