The Undergraduate Program of the Kelley School of Business provides opportunities for breadth of education as well as for a reasonable amount of specialization. This assures the planning of balanced study programs while enabling a student with an interest in one or more professional areas of business to specialize in those fields. All undergraduate study programs also include courses that ensure the development of a basic understanding of the principles and practices involved in the management of business firms in the dynamic economic, social, and political environment of the world today. Integrative core studies emphasize the trends likely to shape the pattern of the world in the years ahead. Beyond these basic requirements, students are given an opportunity to pursue studies from a wide variety of subject areas.
Honors courses are available to students with eligible records.
A number of internship programs, industry studies, and overseas study programs are also available to students with specialized professional interests. Special emphasis is placed on volunteerism and the personal benefits derived from participating in community service. The business course X401 Community Service Learning offers students an opportunity to earn course credit for participation in a specific volunteer project. Upon attaining senior standing, students enjoy a broader range of elective courses and special opportunities for discussion and counseling with senior members of the faculty. Courses at the senior level assure widespread participation by students in the solution of case studies, projects, and special problems drawn from the contemporary business scene.
