The management degree offers three tracks:

• General Management
• Consulting and Change Management
• Entrepreneurship

Students in this major are extremely driven and compassionate since their main focus is to make the best decisions for a company and the team members involved. Management majors tend to have a greater desire to lead and be keenly aware of individual and team strengths and weaknesses. Also, students in this major often do very well in public speaking and interacting with others. A student majoring in management must know when and how to step up and make changes when things are not going the right way without jeopardizing team morale.

• Ability to work in groups and contribute as team player
• Decision-making skills, especially under pressure
• Leadership skills
• Interpersonal communication skills (one-on-one and in groups)
