DIRECTRICES SOBRE LA TRANSFERENCIA DE CRÉDITOS

The Bachelor of Professional Studies in Business and Management program’s strength is primarily based on the curriculum, ease of re-entry into higher education, and the ability to obtain a degree that offers the necessary skills to be successful in the workforce. This program affords you the opportunity to strengthen your business acumen as well as apply theory to best practices in the workplace through class assignments and projects. In the program, you will have the opportunity to apply previous knowledge attained from your career and previous course work completed while adding to your skills, and the abilities that will culminate with a Process Improvement Plan in the final capstone course.
