Master of Business Administration (Online)
As a Business Administration major, you’ll learn how to run many different interrelated aspects of a company—finance, employee relations, marketing, data management and more—making sure they run together as smoothly as possible.
Are you a creative problem solver? A Bachelor of Arts degree in Business Administration from Ashland University might be for you.
Today’s global economy is complex and volatile, and people in business need to be able to think on their feet and find creative solutions to unexpected problems. Perhaps the price of a resource you need for your business suddenly spikes. Perhaps your business grows at an unexpected rate, and you need to find new employees with specialized skills quickly. Perhaps a political crisis in a country where you do business causes serious problems for your bottom line. The kind of creative decision making that you’ll need to handle these crises is what you’ll learn as a Business Administration major.
You’ll learn how the different areas of a business function together, and how to make all these areas run together as smoothly as possible, even when unexpected problems come out of nowhere.
