Students must complete ECO 261 or equivalent course work, prior to taking most Junior and Senior level business courses. All students are also encouraged to take additional courses in economics. This can be done by taking a basic course in Information Technology. Additional work in Information Technology may also be recommended by the student's advisor. A background in all areas of human relations is required for those selecting a major in Business.
Communication skills are essential for success in business.
Oral and written competency will be stressed in all courses. Oral and written competency in second language are also strongly recommended. This may be an attractive option for students with a strong interest in graduate work or in a career in accounting and who plan to sit for the CPA exam which, by 2000, will require five years of prior academic preparation. Students with other business interests also may find this linked program attractive. Students can complete their BA degrees at Albertson College in three and one half years and their MBA at Boise State University in one and a half years.
