Business
Administration
Today, the world of business changes over night. You need to be
sharp and flexible to succeed. Gone are the days of working for
the same company for 40 years. Business is lean, mean and global.
While the challenges are great, the opportunities are even greater.
Earning your master's degree in Business Administration will give
you the competitive edge you'll need to maximize your marketability.
The College of Management's
School of Business offers a wide range of options on the graduate
level.
The 60-credit AACSB-accredited
M.B.A. Program is designed to give you broad knowledge and understanding
of the business world through its foundation and core courses while
allowing you to specialize in one of the following areas:
General Business Administration
If you elect not to choose a specific concentration, you can earn
a General Business degree. You may select a combination of four
courses at the 700 level from any concentration and may take courses
in the School of Professional Accountancy to fulfill the elective
requirements for the General M.B.A. degree (please see Graduate
Bulletin).
Finance
The concentration in Finance develops skills and knowledge which
enable you to understand and analyze the financial challenges of
businesses. Emphasis is placed on domestic and worldwide financial
markets and how they are interrelated in today's global economy.
Courses also focus on the financial management of small and large
businesses.
The finance curriculum
is divided into two areas: Corporate Financial Management and Financial
Markets and Services. Specific electives are determined by you and
your advisor, and courses may be chosen from either area of interest,
depending on your career goals.
International
Business
The International Business concentration focuses on decision-making
in an international context and prepares you for positions within
multinational organizations. Business functions are related to the
sociocultural, political, legal and labor forces that affect global
corporations. This program evaluates the theoretical and practical
opportunities and risks of doing business in an increasingly complex
and interdependent world.
Logistics
& Supply Chain Management
Logistics has grown into an increasingly prominent field as the
world has become more interconnected. Businesses both large and
small are being affected by an evolving global economy. Logistics
includes the management of goods and services from raw materials
to final customer as well as the recycling of the product at the
conclusion of its life. Many companies today also require logistics
personnel to be familiar with supply chain management - which involves
all of the activities associated with moving goods from the raw-materials
stage to the end user.
The M.B.A. with a concentration
in Logistics & Supply Chain Management offers a broad knowledge
and understanding of the business world through required core courses
enhanced by courses in this fascinating and much sought after specialization.
Management
The Management concentration focuses on the interrelated functions
of business enterprises, large and small, that determine their viability
in the global marketplace. Goal setting, organizational structures,
management philosophies and cultures, ethics, production and measurement
processes, problem analysis and decision-making techniques are all
explored within a range of problematic internal and external environments.
Management
Information Systems
The Management Information Systems (MIS) concentration provides
you with a strong foundation in the organizational and management
issues related to information systems and information technology.
Choose 12 credits to learn about Computer Software, Systems Analysis
and Design, Data and Database Management, Decisions Support and
Executive Support Systems, Management of Telecommunication Networks,
and Global IT and Global Electronic Commerce Issues.
Graduates of this program
are prepared to work in a diverse range of corporate and institutional
settings, interacting with both the functional business and computer
technology areas.
Marketing
The Marketing concentration provides you with an in-depth knowledge
of how goods and services are created, priced, distributed and promoted.
In a competitive global economy, marketing is the means by which
companies gain a competitive edge. Technology is changing all business
models and marketers are becoming more adept at using technology
to better understand and serve their customers. You will learn to
factor financial, accounting and management considerations into
your marketing decision making.

careers in law firms, domestic and international corporations, not-for-profit
organizations, government agencies and consulting firms. The J.D.
degree, offered by Touro Law Center, just 20 minutes away in Huntington,
Long Island, provides fundamental legal theory and emphasizes critical
thinking, analysis and communication skills. The M.B.A. degree,
which is AACSB accredited and offered by the College of Management

theoretical and practical grounding in the principles of business
administration. The dual degree provides a comprehensive understanding
of the interaction of the fields of business and law.

strengths include mastery of organizational processes and structures,
administrative and management techniques and policy analysis and

degree-granting institutions upon successful completion of graduation
requirements. Students must apply and be admitted to each institution
separately.

finance, international business, management, management information
systems, and marketing. Our Advanced Certificate in Business Administration
is designed to provide this opportunity and may be earned by successfully
completing 12 credits in a specific concentration offered in the
M.B.A. program.
