B.B.A. Management

https://www.tamuct.edu/degrees/undergraduate/management.html

OVERVIEW

A bachelor’s degree in Management provides you with the opportunity to develop valuable skills that can be applied to a broad range of careers.  The knowledge and skills gained through this program can serve as the foundation for leadership at every level: from an entry level analyst or supervisor position all the way to the CEO of a major corporation.  This program can also serve as a gateway to graduate studies in business or law.  While gaining general exposure to major business disciplines such as accounting, economics, finance, and marketing, you will receive high quality, detailed and rigorous instruction in the human resource management, organizational behavior, leadership, and operations management.  The BBA in Management degree is also designed with upper level elective flexibility for you to tailor your education to match your career needs.  Students may also use elective options to earn a micro-credential.  Please speak to an advisor for details. 

Program Level Student Learning Outcomes

The student will be able to:

  • Demonstrate proficiency in written communications.
  • Demonstrate proficiency in oral presentations.
  • Exhibit cross-cultural competencies that will aid in communicating and working with people from different cultures.
  • Design and defend a reasoned resolution to an ethical challenge.
  • Demonstrate knowledge proficiency in the core business disciplines and integrate across multiple business disciplines.
  • Make decisions through business data analysis.
  • Define and explain the practical significance of core/critical management concepts.

Course Substitution Process

Students seeking to apply credits earned elsewhere toward their A&M-Central Texas degree should speak to a college advisor.  Students must provide an official course description for each course taken at another institution if they wish to receive credit for it towards their A&M-Central Texas degree.  If the course description alone is not sufficient to determine course equivalence, a course syllabus may also be required. 

Requests for course substitutions will be denied if any of the following conditions apply:

  • There is no available course requirement within the A&M-Central Texas degree that adequately matches the proposed substitution course
  • The proposed course substitution makes it impossible for the student to complete the minimum number of upper-level hours required for the A&M-Central Texas degree
  • The proposed course substitution makes it impossible for the student to meet the minimum A&M-Central Texas residency requirement of 30 hours
  • The proposed course substitution is for upper-level business credit, and the original course was completed more than 10 years prior to the date of the substitution request.

Subject to the restrictions above, American Council on Education (ACE) recommended credit may also be utilized to fulfill upper level elective requirements.  In special cases, ACE recommended credit may be utilized for non-elective requirements.  In such cases, a department competency exam may be required.  Please speak to an advisor for more information.  No more than four upper level courses may be approved for substitution through ACE credit.
