Management

Edward S. Ageno School of Business

Is a career in business your goal? Do you want to understand the new world marketplace, the team-centered approach to management, how technology and change are affecting business directions, what skill sets you'll need to stay current in this rapidly changing arena?

At Golden Gate University, our state-of-the art business curriculum will provide you with an excellent, in-depth preparation for the new global marketplace. You'll be taught by a highly qualified and experienced faculty, many of whom are working professionals. Because today's companies want managers who understand technology, know how to lead and can motivate their work force, those abilities are regularly emphasized in our program. You'll graduate with the knowledge, skills and well-earned confidence you'll need to succeed in today's evolving business environment.

Program Description

We emphasize the importance of an in-depth study of business theories and concepts, and of teaching you their practical applications. Your studies will include accounting, marketing, human resources and the functions of business. You'll be trained in the rapidly evolving computer and information systems technologies. You'll learn how to work with co-workers cooperatively and how to form alliances - important skills in a marketplace which increasingly depends on autonomous, global teamwork to complete projects. We use an intensive case-study method of instruction - and our cases are often directly from the current field - which will equip you with the skills and tools to analyze problems and to design and implement solutions. We are leaders in professional education. Our business programs will prepare you to be a leader, too, as a successful, future-oriented manager in today's business environment.

We encourage you to participate in our internship program as a way to further augment our real-world education. Additionally, for busy, working adult students, consider an online management course from Golden Gate University.
