Possibly more than any other degree, it is absolutely critical for business students to build their skills outside of the classroom. At Medaille, two internships are required to graduate with a B.S. in Business Administration. Ultimately, internships help students develop important business skills, build an impressive resume and establish important business contacts and references. Business Administration students are taught by some of the area's finest professionals with diverse experiences as executives, consultants and researchers in business and government. Undergraduates also benefit from instruction from our MBA - level professors.
