Course Description

The Combined BA/BMgt or BSc/BMgt degree program takes five years (50 courses) to complete and leads to the conferral of two degrees. Bachelor of Arts - Economics Economics is the social science that provides comprehension of the meaning and relevance of human action under conditions of scarcity. Economists work to understand unalterable laws of economizing behavior, the knowledge of which helps each of us achieve goals which are individual, time, place and circumstance specific. In other words, the study of economics enables a more effective use of scarce resources such as the time and talent people have available, the land, buildings, equipment, and other tools on hand, and the knowledge of how to combine them to create products and services to satisfy human wants. Economics is a value-free science. It never tells a person how to act; it merely shows how a person must act if they want to attain definite ends. Bachelor of Management - Finance Accountants do far more than "number crunching". Accountants are central to the operations and strategies of all types of organizations. They require integrity and the ability to think critically, communicate, and interact with others effectively. Accounting involves measuring, analyzing, and reporting on factors that affect organizational performance, resources, and risk. Accounting information is the foundation of organizational short and long-term success. We are training you to be accountants from “day one” - not bookkeepers. In addition to the required technical skills, we help students learn to address a broad range of business problems. Classes are small, allowing for one-on-one interaction with professors, who have professional accounting backgrounds, PhDs in accounting, or both. This allows students to acquire and practice the skills needed for success, including writing, presenting, using professional tools, and case analysis.
