Overview

Every field requires coordinators, decision-makers, motivators and analyzers. In Clarkson University's Business Administration program, get a glimpse of what your future could look like.

Why Major in Business Administration?

The collaborative community of doers devises forward-thinking solutions to address existing problems. We not only invite your perspective and welcome your curiosity, but we also supply you with the skills and experiences to go forth and rethink traditional business practices.

The David D. Reh School of Business designed the BSBA as a flexible, customizable program. A core sequence introduces you to business fundamentals. From there, you select from our undergraduate business offerings, which include courses in areas such as finance and accounting, global supply chain management, business analytics, marketing and entrepreneurship. Explore something that interests you, develop one or more specializations and graduate as a take-charge professional with a broad skill set that impresses employers.

Along this path, all BSBA majors acquire an entrepreneurial mindset — in the classroom and via Clarkson’s experiential opportunities. Enter the workforce ready to make a difference or get your own ideas off the ground.

In either direction, the program’s structure equips you to analyze data, communicate your results, identify problems and formulate solutions, think critically and make informed decisions. At the same time, you get to know the tools existing professionals use to track trends and learn more about where business, innovation and sustainable development overlap.
