This program combines the study of fundamentals of economics, statistics, and management with approaches to problem solving in the workplace. It also requires students to take our Business Ethics course. Business Ethics, and most of the other required courses (accounting, law, operations, marketing, etc.), explore the many ethical issues in business. Students will leave this program knowing how ethical behavior should be incorporated into the many decisions made by business people.

Several of the courses in the Business Management Major are utilized by other areas of study at William Penn, including Industrial Technology, Information Technology, and Sport Management. This program aims to provide students with the necessary knowledge, skills, and leadership qualities for a career in the field of their choosing.
