Business Administration Program @ Maryville University

The business administration major is a general business major designed to maximize the student's flexibility. This program is ideal for the student who is interested in a major that surveys the field of business and complements a technical or non-business secondary concentration, as well as students who are looking for a general business degree to prepare for a specialist graduate degree.

Due to the nature of its audience, the curriculum for the business administration major offered in Maryville’s Weekend and Evening College format varies slightly from the traditional undergraduate curriculum. The WEC general education requirements retain the same focus and content but have different course restrictions and credit hours as affected by the 3-4 credit hour variances. Specific WEC major or minor requirements can be found in any WEC office.
